About your recycled cycle..
Trek 2300 Pro Composite, 22 ..." /57 cm frame-for someone 5'6 to 5'9 or so.
This one is special. Classy, high quality, fast.
Here are the details:
Ideal for someone who wants a smooth, fast ride. Great for exercise or preparing for that big race. This
is what we did to make it such:
- Installed a new shifting system (see details below)*
- Tuned the bike, repacked the front hub and headset with new grease. The headset got new loose bearings-it came with a bearing retainer so now is smoother and will last longer.
- Rebuilt the front wheel.**
For your safety:
- Always wear a helmet
- Assume cars don't see you
- Make sure your brakes and lights work
- Make sure the bike fits you. A basic fit requires you have about a one inch space between the top tube and your body when straddling the bike.
- Then adjust the seat such that your leg is straight when the pedal is at the bottom of the crank stroke.
Some things about your new re-cycled cycle:
How to work the gears:
- When shifting gears on a derailleur bike (where the chain moves over sprockets) you need to pedal gently. In practice, this means you should avoid shifting when accelerating or going up a hill. If you do, the chain may come off or damage the gears or both.
- This bike has 24 speeds, but not all of them should be used. For best performance, try to keep the chain line straight. This means:
- o When using the low gear in the front, use only the lower 3 sprockets in the back.
- When using the middle gear in the front, you can use all 8 gears in the back.
- When using the high gear in the front, use only the high 3 sprockets in the back.
- You should get a pump and a good lock.
- The tires will lose air over time and that's normal (other than getting a flat). So, you should pump the tires to the pressure indicated on the sidewalls every week or so.

- ?
Oil is your bike's best friend (3 IN 1, motor oil, or TriFlo bike lubricant.)
o. Keep the chain looking shiny from just enough lubrication.
