  1. Trying to help my wife adjust her gears on a Nexus 4-speed. Cannot find any
    info on how to line up the markings on the hub with witch gear.
    For instance with the 7-speed I found info on Sheldon Brown to set the gear
    in the middle position. Ie 4th gear and then align the red marks on the hub.
    But it seems just about impossible to find any info on how the base setup is
    for the 4 speed.
    This is what Sheldon says about the 7-speed

    Appreciate all input
    Thanks

    It's the same for the Nexus 4, 7 & 8, use 4th gear for all of them.

    Thank you very much Sheldon. That is exactly what I needed to know 😉
