Forget the "parens" and tell us what you mean by "show the gear system". Do you want to know how to shift the gears or how to fix them. Either way the manual will be of no help.

Turn the bike over so its sitting on the seat & bars..
There are a few small setting srews on the derailleur..
These are for adjuting.. Adjust while turning the peddles & shifting.. You should be able to smooth it out

SOURCE: 18 speed bike 6 gear shift works fine 3 gear

If the cable is rusty or otherwise binding it won't let the derailleur fall toward the smaller sprockets when the control is moved. Likewise, it may not even let you move the control in the direction that pulls the cable (bigger rings).

If you don't know much about the process I suggest you read this:

http://coachlevi.com/cycling/complete-beginner-guide-to-bicycle-gears-shifting/

and take the bike to a Local Bike Shop for a look-see and maybe a tune-up.

You have to look if when you act on the shifting level it get hard to move or it is free, if free, probably the cable is broken.
Also check if the cable is not too loose, try to follow the cable track and move the level and see if the cable move with that, in that way probably can find where the cable is stuck or broken/loose.

SOURCE: Need to adjust the gears on 18 speed Next

Since you don't specify the make or model a manual is not likely to be recommended for you. However, gears adjustments are sort of generic within limits. Try this link and find your shifters...

SOURCE: Cannot send comments to your guy to get specific info I requested

The manual that comes with the bike is a general one, I sell 5000+ bikes a year and can tell you that what you are asking for is not available. Giant, Trek, Cannondale, and the highter price bikes are only sold through bike shops, assembled professionally. You cannot buy them in a box, so your bike is already adjusted for you. You can go to any bike shop and they will verify what I am telling you. Now, what is the problem that you need the manual to answer?

I purchased this used and I have no clue as to how many speeds it has, how to remove the front wheel and put it back on and I would like to get new hand grips for it. Any help? Please???

Number of Speeds is easy. Count the number of cogs on the chainwheel (that's the one with the pedals), count the cogs on the rear wheel and multiply the two together. Normally 3 on the front and 6 one the back, so 18 gears, or 3 and 5 is 15, 2 and 5 is 10.

To remove the front wheel, turn the bike over, wheels in the air slacken off the wheel nuts on either side and slide the wheel up. You make have to slacken the brake to slide the wheel and tire out.

There are some manuals here. Ironhorse seems to be a budget brand available from places like Walmart and Canadian Tire

The search Query would be simply

make model manual

Can't find instructions on how to put the rear derailleur system back on after changing tire.

Firstly, why take off the gear mech to change tyre ? All you do is free the rear wheel, then slide it forward and unhook the chain.
Anyway, we'll need to know the make of the gear mech before we can advise on its replacement - a photo would be good, too.

I need an owners manual for a pacific evolution bike

Are you sure the derailer or sprocket are not bent? The next thing if not that is the cable itself is it pulling the delairer to release the gear from the gear it is in? one final is the bike just may not go into 6th gear depending on which gear you have the front sprocket in because it would pull the front sprocket to far past the crank space where the pedals are at.

I want to replace my Pacific Bicycle derailleur parts.The parts that are on there are td-one and the bicycle is a mountain bike. the model number is R4446WMUT.Later on I would like to replace possibly the...

Are you in love with TD-One parts or would an upgrade to almost anything Shimano be a possibility? Look on eBay. A Pacific Bicycle or any bike sold by a department store isn't really what one would consider an upgrade-worthy project. A new bike better might be cheaper considering labor costs. Replacement of parts for failure might be worthwhile.

I just bought my bike at wal-mart and I didnt get a manual. Iam having a hard time changing gears

I'm assuming you bought a mountain type thing with 12 -18 gears on it, It is easy enough to shift it, as long as it is it working right, They should have set the stops on both shifters front and rear for you. They might be a little off, but when in low gear rear, your chain should not go over the limit and fall into the spokes. Like wise in high gear, should not fall off the cluster in high. The front is the same, the chain should stop at the sprockets smoothly, and not crunch into gear. My bike shifts like a car, 1,2,3,etc. Your front sprockets, unless you are mountain climbing, leave it on the big sprocket, about 46 teeth, and get used to running that high gear up front, now the rear sprocket, you start off in low, biggest one, and move your shifter while you are peddling, 2nd, then 3rd, and when you come to a light or have to stop, downshift to low again in the rear and you'll be ready to take right off. There are a lot of people out there who don't know how to shift these things and they leave them in one gear and pedal air. Hope this helps.

Mens Titan Pathfinder Mountain Bike

If the gears will no longer go back on the bike, I would recommend buying a new wheel (including a new rear hub). It is usually easier and more cost effective to buy a wheel than to replace the hub. To replace the hub (the part that is stripped on your bike) you would also have to remove and replace spokes, etc. Search online for the wheel size you need (probably 26" - you can check the tire size) or take to a reliable bicycle shop and they will gladly help you. Anyway, you need a new hub but probably better off getting a new wheel - much easier.
