What bike are you using now??


It's it is a kapchai, the bike has a centrifugal clutch so it would unload the drivetrain automatically and engage gradually.

However for clutch bikes, you can still upshot or downshift without a clutch. You just need to unload the drivetrain a split second before shifting. Clutch-less upshifts are easier to do, downshifts needs quite a bit more finesse. Some fancier bikes have autoblip feature on the quickshifter to help downshifts.

If you fark up a clutch-less downshift you might lock up the rear if you don't have a slipper clutch on your bike.
