Hey guys,
I'm working on a couple of nice, super clean old Ross bikes for an older couple down the court.
broke everything down, cleaned, lubed, reassembled, new cables, etc., etc.
the rear derailleur's good, but when shifting on the front, the chain seems to hop a bit. this is difficult to explain -- it shifts okay, but when it goes up or back down, it lines up fine and the chain moves okay, but it's like it takes a second for the chainring to take up the chain, and it makes a bit of a slapping sound. does that make sense? not sure what's happening here.
these are 10-speeds -- like early generation comfort/cruiser/mountain bikes.
