Subject: Burley Django: Chain slips in first gear
|
Has anyone experienced this problem? I'm having trouble with dropping the rear derailler to 1st gear (gear 2-1). Instead of setting, the chain slips instead. Does anyone know how this can be corrected? Thanks. epp P.S. - pardon the incorrect terminology if that applies here; I'm learning

It feels like it wants to leave the gear, as if the chain hasn't fully seated itself on the cog. Maybe it's between gears? Thanks. epp

Maybe it's between gears? ok thats an easy thing to fix. there is eitehr a knob on the shifter where the cable comes out or at the back fo the derailler when the cable goes into it. 1/2 a turn usualy counterclockwise will fix it. just turn it a bit try it and see if it has stopped.

Does anyone know how this can be corrected? well we need to define slips. does it skip so you get jolts? or does it want to leave that gear? the first is usualy caused by a worn chaind and or worn cogs. the second is a simple adjsutment.
