Gear Handlebar
How do you use the gears on my new bicycle correctly?
I have been managing all right but want to know the right way to do the least damage. The on on the left of the handlebars have a gradient 1——–2——3 and the one on the left goes from 1r to 7
Thanks
Sorry that last bit was for the right side
The idea of gears is to control the revolutions per minute of the engine (you). That is the cadence. Using gears allows you to have different speeds without altering too much your cadence, and if you choose a proper cadence you can pedal longer. (For road racing the classic number is 90rpm for cadence)
This explains it all:

Just don’t think that 3×7=21 usable combinations. There are probably only 15 usable combinations
