Ashley Smith Posted January 22, 2005 Report Share Posted January 22, 2005 did you get a new chainring? if so this could be your problem due to the chain not matching up to the worn chainring (N) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cookie456_the2nd Posted January 22, 2005 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2005 jus thinking that looking at another post, im off to go buy a chainring... it could be difficult finding a 20tooth, halfords wont have one and i dont think my lbs will either...

mink Posted January 22, 2005 Report Share Posted January 22, 2005 Could be a stiff link in the chain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lawnmowerman Posted January 22, 2005 Report Share Posted January 22, 2005 chain too thin for the ring? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomm Posted January 22, 2005 Report Share Posted January 22, 2005 Nah, it's just chainsuck. You ought to buy a new chainring/cassette whenever you change the chain. Although it could of course be a stiff link as mink said, but I'd put money on it being simple chain suck (N) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*OnzaMike* Posted January 22, 2005 Report Share Posted January 22, 2005 When i put an ACS on and S/h rear wheel, my chain was all gay, it kept sticking to the rear cog etc, but i rode with it for about 20mins, and it bedded together and now its all good. Probably a bit off topic not sure? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N.Wood Posted January 22, 2005 Report Share Posted January 22, 2005 Yeh as has been said i's most likely to be chainsuck... The teeth on the chainring become hooked were the chain has worn it's self into the back of each tooth. This causes the chain to hook onto the chainring so it picks it up, then falls, causing a skip.
