Rear Derailleur Adjustments

The rear derailleur has two adjusting screws. The “low” adjusting screw, sometimes marked “L”, limits how far the rear derailleur and chain can move toward the wheel. The “high” adjusting screw, sometimes marked “H”, limits how far the rear derailleur and chain can move away from the wheel.
