We run Sora 9 speed 46/36/24 11-36 on the tandem.

After changing the chain earlier this year, we suddenly started to get chain suck on the small chainring, which I don't believe has appreciable wear.

This was eventually solved mid ride by applying excessive lube to the chain (yes, I was surprised this worked too), and we've since done over 1000 miles without a problem.

Then suddenly yesterday it started again.

Any advice?

It's very difficult to diagnose as can't be replicated without load.

Am inclined to buy new chainring and chain, but if so which ones?
