• I think the sprocket is probably a bit worn but chainring looks fine. I'd reached the max limit of tensioning so shortened it by an entire link at the weekend and we're back at the min limit - we'll see if that helps - might stop it dropping so often.
    It does feel weird though, I get a rumbling/lumpiness sensation through the pedals. Will report back after this week's commuting.
    I can deal with the rumbling, but it dropping off twice every commute is annoying as balls.

  • Drive train components wear out to be similar to the most worn component in the drive train. So if you have a worn sprocket your new chain won’t mesh well with it until the chain has worn to a similar level of wear.

    Chains wear out fastest, so it’s a good idea to catch chain wear early and replace before the chain is too worn out or the other components will also get worn out.
