I'm finding shifting is really dodgy, even after being properly indexed by the guys at Decathlon.
My LBS says the rear mech is worn, and it does seem like it's worn a bit. But Decathlon said it wasn't.
It's hardly done 1800 miles in total, but my shifting habits are a bit sketchy and the like, as are my maintenance habits.
Do you think buying a new rear mech could fix my shifting problems? It's actually unsafe to ride ATM because I'd be accelerating and then it will snap to the wrong gear.
Of course, chain jumping and poor shifting could be a worn cassette/chain, but the derailleur has unusual side-to-side movement that does seem to indicate wear.
It's been 700 miles since I last replaced the middle ring, chain and cassette, too. I don't know who to believe.
