Hi all. I have a problem. 12 speed eagle gx. I can shift all the way up to easier gear, but then the rear mech gets stuck and won’t shift down.
Picture the scene… I use the 50 cog to tackle a steep climb, get to the top where it is flat and want to shift down and the mech just stays there. The shifter releases cable though.
I have change the gear outer, new inner cable, but it still happens.Seems to be fine in the stand but not when bike is weighted. Chain too short maybe? There are no unusual kinks, everything seems smooth.
On a separate but perhaps related note, the chain sometimes comes of the top jockey wheel and gets wedged between the backing plate and the jockey. This happened last year and led to an exploded rear mech. Replaced the mech and it seems to be happening again…
