Some of the big takeaways of the gears on these mountain bikes are how there are two different sets of gears, one on the left handlebar is numbered 1-3, where 1 is the lowest and 3 is the highest (toughest) difficulty to petal, normally you will keep it at 2. The gears on the right side of the handlebar are more delicate and called the &#8216;expensive side&#8217; they are number 1-7 and are used to get the exact resistance you want after you chose one of the larger gears (1-3) on the left handlebar. Both the chain and the gear &#8216;wheels&#8217; are located on the right side of the bike below the seat and work in unison with each other. The chain is important to watch because it drives the gears and wheels to propel you forward, but can cause a problem if loose or cross chained.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<style>.kadence-column78_08da7a-e9 > .kt-inside-inner-col,.kadence-column78_08da7a-e9 >
