'04 specialised enduro comp, help needed.

[Khane]

wheel worked fine when i had it on my '98 FSR, it was directly transfered over, including cassette.

yeah i would agree with josh, my idrive used to skip down to the cable running under the BB

 

[Khane]

If i ran my cable too short on my old i drive it did shift on its own

it was too short originally, so swapped it out for a longer one.
kinda why i'm asking what length other owners are.

 

[cchris2lou]

does it skip all the time ?

 

[Khane]

more so under compression.

 

[cchris2lou]

try to shorten the chain then .

it gets longer as the rear end gets closer to the chainset .

 

[Khane]

chain is probably down to the lenth of an 8spd chain.

hi
where the cable runs under the bb is a tuned lenght i built a 04 model a couple of years ago. are you using good quality cables?
si

 

[jamabikes]

try running it without the cable outer going under the bb, i.e just the bar inner going through the guides. if it still does then at least you know its not that.

.

Or use the stops on the rear mech to run it in one gear and disconnect the cable and try it?
I'm sure i'm teaching you to suck eggs, but no stiff links in the chains?
