It felt as if the bike was slipping under load in the two smallest rear cogs. And after several frustrating hours adjusting and indexing front and rear derailleurs, i think i've nailed the problem. With the chain on the inner crank, the outer edge seems to be catching 4 rivets around the outer crank. Once the lower gears are selected on the rear, the chain runs inboard enough to clear the rivets. These rivets seem to be doing absolutely nothing, except providing something for the chain to snag on in the highest gears.
Assuming i have found the problem, can anyone tell me the solution, please?
Thanks.
