Went out for a ride the other day and during the ride the chain started jumping on the cassette. Not up or down but over. Fiddled with mech etc with no joy limped back home.

Anyway I checked the bike out yesterday and eventually found this by accident. The picture best explains it, I never thought such a small thing could such a problem.

“The picture best explains it, “

– no it really doesnt …..

the other picture explains it a bit better!

a knackered chain link?

Bash guards we invented for gnarly dudes like you 😉

It started happening after a AWESOME+ splash through in ford at Blaise, Bristol.

All it is is one inside plate of one link that go FUBAR’ed. Patched in another when home and the Rat Bike rides on 🙂
