Thanks for the replies.
The chain was changed within the last 12 months, so hoping that does need replacing. I will have a look for any noticable signs of wear.
It feels like some sort of derailleur issue because of the slip into low gear? ie I am riding in a hard'ish gear (3:5) and then suddenly it feels too easy like (3:1). Although I haven't actually looked down to see the position of chain and gears.
Not sure if it makes any difference to mention, but this happens on flat road. I don't think I am applying significant force on the pedals. Thinking back, the problem did occur more and worse when riding 2:4 or 2:5 (front on the middle cog).
