Stephen the gear shifter is really quite easy once you know how far to move the lever for each gear. As Dave says it's about feel as well.
Dave the chain has never come of the rear derailleur it has them adjustment screw's to prevent the chain coming off in either high or low gear's once set up
The rear gear cable tension has to have no slack in it or you wont get every gear.
What i like to do is over take the lycra clad boy's who spent loads on thier bike's + clothing as whizz by on a bike that cost about £130 wearing short's + t shirt
Many Thanks
Andrew
