<< < (2/6) > >>

lazychubs:
have you got the tophat on the sprocket mutts
as that sometimes makes em move
hence the slack and tight
and if its a cassette cog my clicks a tad lol

muttley:
Yeah the top hat is on, i always double check that wich is why i am really confused over the tight slack thing  :(

SteveG:
Sounds like you have checked most things.  What about run out on the chain ring or perhaps a problem with the rear wheel bearing. That would show up as movement on the wheel though.
Might be worth checking the chain for tight links or even badly formed teeth on the chainring or sprocket.
 

Rooonga:
Agree with chubs, I had the exact same souding problem as you and it was because the chain was too thin for the freewheel. (It looks fine, but was a fraction too narrow.)

sonic-1:
heve yer riden ramps lately , might have banged front sproket on a coping n damaged the chain halflinks nip on front sproket n create tight spot !!!!!! well mine did
