| hi,
you cables could be done so they will stick in the caseing when shifting down to 1st.
or try this:
1. put your gear into your third sproket (front sprokets)
2. don't pedal or anything just shift to 1st and check for slack in the cable.
3. if their is no slack loosen the front derailer cable screw and pull on it until it isn't slacky then tighten it.
4. after that your derailer should have enough tension to pull it into 1st gear in the front.
----if their is no slack this can lead to dirty guck in your spring so clean out the front derailer.
also if thier is no slack it can just be sticky cables in the caseing which i reccommened bringing it into a bike shop.
