I've a brand new Alfine 11 that's done about 100miles. It was silent and worked a treat for the 1st 75ish but has now started to slip in 2nd 4th and 5th. It is all set up correctly. Has anyone else had the same problem??

Mine's done nearly 600 miles now, coming up to the first oil change time. I had a bit of slip in some gears initialy, but things have been super smooth for the last few weeks. I know their have been horror stories on here, so I'm not counting my chickens just yet.... ๐Ÿ˜•

Are you sure that the marks are lining up on the rear?

Sounds like cable "stretch" to me.

Yeah, what he said - I did find that things improved after spending a few minutes getting the marks to line up EXACTLY. Any make sure the cable run is super smooth as well - no cable drag, kinks, broken outers etc etc.....
