They allow you to pedal harder and at a slower rhythm, but with more distance trav- eled per pedal revolution.

For the best performance in this case, do not use the largest rear sprocket (E).

On bicycles with three front sprockets, you may wish to keep the chain on the middle front sprocket (F) and shift the chain on the rear sprocket cluster.

These gear combinations are middle range which overlap some of the higher and some of the lower gear combinations.
