After a couple of recent bashes – one tumble into the mud that banged it a bit but no noticable bending and then a twig jammed in the wheel that caught behind it – my SRAM rear mech’s now skipping about and getting jammed on the larger rear cogs and not responding when I try to shift the chain back down, although it ‘recovers’ a few minutes later.

Rear mech set-up is not my chosen specialist subject – any ideas?

Thanks

Most likely bent something or damaged a spring. Might need someone to take a good look at it and see how bad the damage is.

My gears were acting up,took it to the shop and they fitted a new cable,gears indexed 1sr time,everytime,i had a small kink in my cable which was causing issues

Not sure where you are during the day at the moment Tim but you’re welcome to bring it over to mine and hoick it up on the work stand and we can have a look at it? Cheers Luke

Hanger?

Thanks Luke – in London every day during the week mate, so seems unlikely, but appreciate the offer. Might be reduced to getting out the Zinn’s manual and think for myself. Probably won’t go well…

Now that the Downs don’t resemble a sodden pigpen, join us on the trail this weekend?

I’ll check Tim, usual time and place?

Should be, yeah. You have my mobile? Check with a a text Saturday night.

as per skellnonch, HANGER
