Jumping gears-Mtb

[patches]

The 5th gear from the bottom is my favourite jumping gear. I spin out if I use 6th. I'm too fast for the jump if I use 4th.

replaced my chain and pulleywheels.. old chain started "skipping/jumping" on a few of the gears. So replaced it, now the new one jumps intermittendly if i put power on... did some barrel adjustment which help but not completely fixed.. time for a new cassette? Any other advise as to what the cause could be?

Yip, cassette is also worn.

seems it is time to replace quite a bit of the drivetrain then...

When my chain started jumping I took it to the LBS and R 35 later it was properly adjusted and has not jumped in any of my rides the last three years.

 

The bike had done about 500 km easy km's from brand new, so nothing was worn. TiBones has hit the nail on the head.

Had a look - still getting proper chain "engagement" and will take it to a shop to get their opinion - praying that it will only be a R35 fix instead of a few hundred
