Replaced the chain on my road bike as old chain was showing as .75 on park tool (but not 1). I now seem to have an intermittent problem with shifting to the front ring, it occasionally overshoots and goes round the crank arm. Adjusting the stops on the FD in the stand means it stops shifting up. I've managed to get it to do the same in the stand and it looks like the chain isn't meshing with the ring teeth. They don't look worn (sharking). The chainset has done 7.5k miles, so maybe it's time to replace as well?

I have kept the old chain which didn't have these issues, tempted to refit

Chain is the same brand and model.

Any thing else I might be missing?
