Dahon Curve D3 gear adjustments

Dahon Curve D3 utilises an internal 3 speed gears from SRAM. If the setting goes out of whack, follow these steps for adjustments:

1. Put the bike in 3rd gear. This basically lengthens/slacken the gear cable length.

2. Very slightly unscrew the knurled sleeve that is directly at the end of the black plastic or vinyl cover over the gear cable. (This slightly slackens the cable)

3. Tighten the little locknut to keep this setting in place. (This will fix the problem of  the third gear not staying engaged).

The following video shows us the location of adjustments to be made. The bike depicted here is a Brompton.
