Troubleshooting
Drivetrain skipping or mis-shifting

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure peak performance, it is recommended to have your Procaliber 6 professionally assembled and tuned. Regularly check your tire pressure before each ride to match the trail conditions. The drivetrain requires periodic cleaning and lubrication to maintain smooth shifting. Periodically inspect the suspension stanchions for debris and ensure the air pressure in your fork is set to your specific body weight using a shock pump. Because this bike features a modern performance geometry, ensure your seat height and cockpit reach are adjusted to your unique measurements to prevent fatigue during long rides.
