I should add: 1: I don’t know if the front derailleur was loose or misaligned prior to the chain snarl. I’m wondering if the chain kink and the buildup of lube caused it to bind up. I was pedaling—but not hard—so when the chain hit the front derailleur, it knocked the derailleur loose and out of alignment. Maybe?
2: I mistyped the chain mileage—it’s probably closer to 4500 miles. I’ve had the bike for two years and I ride nearly every day, usually between 2 and 10 miles. I’ve also ridden several 30 to 50 mile day trips and one day of 100 miles (go me, finally!). 365 x 2 = 730 730 x 6 mile (daily average) = 4380 miles 4380 + 500 miles (day trips) = 4880 miles -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
