Why does my CHAIN....
1) Jump off the front gear when I pedal backwards? 2) yank on the rear derailer sometimes making it snap backwards from time to time? Thanks in advance, TBerk |

Thanks in advance, TBerk When was the last time you cleaned and lubed your chain? Good point. I haven't. What I _did_ do recently was take apart the rear dérailleur gears and repack them with clean bearing grease. (I found some grass stems wrapped up in there.) I'll try the clean chain, lube inside of links, wipe down out side of chain proceedure today and report back. TBerk |
