Gearing on Bicycles

Gearing on bicycles is listed as a whole number, such as 70 Gear, use on bicycles for normal riding conditions. this number is related to the distance traveled in one revolution for the crank. The gear number "70" multiplied by Pi (3-1/7) will give the distance traveled in one revolution- or 220 inches.

The lower gears require less pedal effort, but decrease the distance the bicycle travels in one revolution of the pedals. The lower gears are used primarily for pedaling up grade or against wind.

Conversely, the higher gears require more pedal effort and the distance traveled for one revolution of the pedals increases. These higher gears should be used primarily on down grade or with the wind to maintain the speed attained with little effort.

To lower the gear on a bicycle, you can decrease the size of the front sprocket or increase the size of the rear sprocket. Conversely, to get a higher gear, you can increase the size of the front sprocket or decrease the size of the rear sprocket. On derailleur bicycles, the chain is positioned on different size front or rear sprockets to vary the gearing.

On multi-speed hubs, the internal parts shit to accomplish gear change.

Rely on Your Schwinn Dealer

When you buy a new Schwinn bike from your local Schwinn Dealer he will see to it that your bike is properly assembled, adjusted and correctly fitted to you so that it is safe and ready.

1972 schwinn 7

First, select a frame size appropriate for your height. Your Schwinn Dealer will help you.
The saddle height should be adjusted so that the rider's leg is almost straight when he sits on the saddle with the ball of the foot on the pedal in its lowest position.

The handlebar should be set so that the grips are at a comfortable angle. This is usually at a slight downward angle pointing to the rear of the bicycle.

Hand levers should be located near the handlebar grips but not touching them. The levers should be positioned below the handlebars at a slight angle outward form the vertical.

1972 schwinn 9

YOU CAN SEE THE DIFFERENCE!

Bike sizes are measured by the size of the wheel and the size of the frame. In the two illustrations, the wheel sizes are identical, 27". On the left the taller and shorter riders are mismatched with the bikes having 20" and 24" frames....wrong when you consider the taller rider is 6'2" and the smaller rider is 5'7"! On the right, they are the proper height for the bikes. The frame size makes the difference in proper fit.
