The bike does not shift well. How do I know whether the rear derailleur is working.
I am thinking about moving from 16 speed to an 18 speed. I might be more reliable. Has anyone completed this? What are your thoughts?
Thank you all.
Best piece of advisement I can give is to learn how to work on your machine. A mechanic can work and explain a few things if he has time but be prepared to pay for that knowledge.

2 items.... wheel size is 20” but most use the Velox rim tape. Doesn’t matter how many gears you run, any number can be made to shift properly.
