Derailleur adjustment screws
All right, this is pretty basic, but I'm pretty much an idiot when it comes to wrenching. It took me, literally, 3 weeks to remove pedals the first time.
Okay, Trek 7300, looking down from the seat there are two screws. Which one controls the rear derailleur? And which way would I turn it to fix this problem: Shifting into 1st, chain sometimes goes too far and into the spokes?
Thanks.
