My bike shifts really well, but when I try to shift from 1 to 2, I have to push the shifter all the way and it hurts my finger. However, it shifts instantly from 2 to 1. I watched all the shifting setup videos and adjusted everything. Where could the problem be? The shifting is very good (it shifts instantly), but going from 1 to 2 requires a lot of force.

  1. So going from small ring to big ring right?

    I don’t think that Shimano has any way of adjusting the lever throw, but you could try lubing the front derailleur or changing the cable. Especially if you’ve never done this and have used the bike for a while.
