Well…have been having some problems with the new bike that started yesterday…the chain was skipping in the top 3 gears and I spent a couple of hours yesterday changing out the rear gears and lubing everything up but nothing worked…and it irritated me so much I just went on and on about it when we were out shooting pool yesterday…and was going to send a nastygram to the company and bitch to them about it since the bike only has 600 miles on it….but, when I got up this morning, I knew exactly what was wrong with it….as a little background, with a new bike you normally have to make some fine adjustments to the shifters so they are zeroed in…and yesterday, I had made a quarter turn towards the downshift side just to see if it could be any better and completely forgot that I had done it…and the chain didn’t start to skip until a few miles down the trail so I didn’t connect the two…so, this morning I took the adjustment out and no skips at all in 15 miles….the bike was trying to shift down a gear when it was skipping….and I am an idiot for not remembering that I made that adjustment…I guess the bright side is that the chain and gears needed to be lubed up and that is done now….geez….
