Adjust Your Derailler
Just got my bike back from a shop after they did their yearly maintenance on it. The bike is just a year and a half old and was running fairly decently, just wanted to get the chain and rear cassette cleaned up. I picked up the bike and the rear derailler wasn’t set up right the bike started jumping gears and clicking. I was pissed, but not upset enough to want want to take my bike back to the shop across town.
Wondering if I could just adjust it myself I did a web search and found the Bike Tutor website.
Here’s a fantastic site for anyone wanting to get started with their own repairs, they offer instructions and videos that are really well done and easy to follow. Check out their posting on adjusting your rear derailler:
