Functionally there is very little difference wheather bike is 10, 12, 15, 18, 21 or more speeds. In some cases it becomes necessary to remove "people sprocket? derailer mechanism, if it will hit the engine, elsewise raise the engine.

It's all rather simple, really it is.

BTW do feel free to ask away, I am aware that all learning starts somewhere.
