It won't go on. There's something on the front derailleur blocking its path. The chain is down by the bottom bracket. The gears are Sram Rival. Any suggestions?
Pics might help.
Hmm. Ok, is the front nech over the inner or outer ring?
It's your bike, you tell me what it looks like. If the front mech is over the big ring but the chain has dropped off the small ring onto the BB then the chain may jam against the front mech as you try to put it on. If this is the case, move the front mech by changing gear so it's over the small ring and refit tge chain.What's it look like?
Is there a chain catcher on there? Something like the black bit on the right of this image, with SRAM written on it in white? If there is, you'll need to loosen it to get the chain past it, then tighten it back up again so that it just misses the chain when the chain is on the inner ring.
