Hey people,quick question.

I have a Gary Fisher sugar 3 and it is an awesome bike.It's my first full suspension bike and I may never go back to a hardtail again.

I have a lot of miles on it without any problems until last weekend.It was very muddy and sloppy and the dreaded chain suck problem became apparent.I know this is a common problem but I was wondering if there was a way to help keep this from happening.I do keep the drivetrain clean and lubed.I was thinking maybe chain tensioner or different size chainrings?

Any info would be great.Happy Holidays.

I found this link on Sheldon Brown's web site. It has everything (and possibly more than) you wanted to know about the dreaded chain suck.
