Bruh, next video, blow your nose before you film so we don't have to listen to you sucking snot.

looks like the highest cog ring is worn out

My issue was simply kinked chain links. Made a popping sound. Put the bad links I had a few, onto a chain breaker. I then just applied some force back and forth on the link pins, not driving out the pins. Applied some fresh lube to the links, tested the up and down motion on each link with my fingers and just like that a functioning link once again! They inner and and outter link plates were not bent so the links were good. Hope this helps some!

im getting total anxiety from this rear derailer,,,i now want a single speed bike,,,

Very helpful, thank you.

Dude too much talking about absolutely nothing. What the fck was the problem & what fixed it? Gees stfu

You have my old race face cranks man I miss those cranks now I have Shimano cues I love it for the price

Half of the video, still no fix, just talk

Thanks I have a similar problem I think it’s the free hub slipping though

I really cannot listen to you. It’s painful and your camera too all over the place AND too much info bro over kill next time PLEASE bring your shpeel down and go slow. OH YEAH ALSO TAKE A BREATH DUDE.

I had the same problem. Skipping in 9th (my highest gear). Cleaning everything fixed it. There was a ton of grime on the derailleur pulleys and on the cassette.

My hanger was bent and the chain was worn. Got the hanger tool and shifts like butter.

So you fixed your chain falling with upgrading components, gotcha.

That last screw he mentioned controls chain wrap, a critical factor here. He needs a lot of wrap for that tiny high gear cog.

Hey, same problem here. Cutting it with a blade seems like nearly impossible, I don't know how many hours it can take. I was thinking also about a file and attaching it to my drill. What was the diameter of your file?

bummer you spent all that dough, but at least you learned a lot. This will probably save you $$ in the long-run.

needed that. thanks

I had a situation this week where i had either the low gears clicking or the high gears clicking depending on how i had it indexed. I had a new derailleur, cassette, chain and shifter. After much adjustments with no success i threw in the towel and went to bed. Well, it had me frustrated and i couldn't sleep so it occurred to me that i never checked the derailleur hanger. I got up and went and checked it and sure as hell it was slightly bent towards the spokes. After bending it back straight, it shifts as smooth as silk. Lesson learned. Check my hanger first. 😂

Bike shop service is so overrated...

Right so you narrowed it down to 4000 possible errors. Cool.

This is a common basic fix. You only needed to buy the cogs you need they are like £1.20p each

Mine did this. I took off the derailleur and bypassed it for diagnostics purposes. Tried peddling again and it actually skipped. Exactly as you say.. I haven't figured out a solution. But at least i seen it jump. Then i put the derailleur and regular chain back. Knowing thst wasnt the issue. I use the bafang kit. Mine didnt skip for a month. Now it does . But anyways. I pushed the front wheel onto a wall and pushed the peddle. i seen it skiping jumping

Well my chain is skipping when I put some more weight on pedal (But only if chain is on middle gear in front) and I didn't wash my bike since I got it even tho I bike through rain, mud, sand, puddles and snow

Best solution is to sandwich a large hacksaw blade between two thin strips of steel. Clamping it in with grub screws will allow you to adjust the cutting depth of the exposed blade. Cut off the seatpost about 4" out then cut a slot right down it into the frame slot with the angle grinder. Then an hour's hard work with the blade will see the post internally cut and you can have a go with a big wrench. Then drill through the post, insert a big bolt to resist twisting and trap post and bolt in a vise and turn the frame while pulling upwards. This removed a post that had started to deform the special screw jack we tried. Penetrating oil is a waste of time.

Are you sure you have no clutch? XT Deores all the models I've looked at do? Clutch doesn't spring it back, it more holds it in place after the shift, gets looser during the shift. However I don't have one, just my understanding I've gathered from research. Your smallest rings do look extremely worn to me but maybe that was a bad angle. However probably aren't helping the situation. Ghost shifting and chain slipping are 2 different problems, even though they seem the same. I'm guessing you've improved the situation, not solved it. Try measuring chain ring for wear and finding your derailleur model to confirm if it does indeed have a clutch, if it happens again. The bike isn't a lemon, it can be fixed, the shop you took it to and failed to fix it is the lemon however.

Thanks for sharing you just saved me $100 in replacement parts because I would've done all the costly repairs you did

The DWD worked on my shifters that wasn't even clicking! Good job!

LOL this is not ''solving'' but replacing literally everything, BS video.

Oh man I've had this similar iasue haunting one of my bikes for a long time now..only yhr low gears and put weight it slips through. The upper gears all all sem fine. I did once have a major incident where the rear deralieur got bent into the spokes after hitting a branch on the gravel path. Changed that out and things were ok for a while - i thought. But i can torally understand the approach of checking worn gears, chain , chainrings.. I cope it comes down to that vital fine tuning / cleaning and freeing up the whip effect as youve pointed out - Thanks for the video & describing the issues you had! I'm gona give this some more effort before I just sell the damn thing :)

always check the tiny screw that holds the deraillieur hanger to the frame

Well done, that man! Hope there weren't too many flies :-)

Nice work. I've used Boeshield T9 to lubricate derailleur pivot points. After a season of riding, especially winter riding I'll do a full bike teardown and deep clean. I had some minor issues with a front derailleur that I bought used and lubing the pivot points did the trick.

Bike shop mechanics now are frequently thieves. All that (excessive) work they (allegedly!) did was a money grab.

hope you covered the disc up good.

Hey, I think your WD-40 trick worked on my Trek 950 today. I took up some steep hills and had no problems with 2,3 and 4 on the rear cassette. It had been driving me crazy after a new chain, crankset (2 of 3) and a new rear cassette.

Myth: WD-40 Multi-Use Product is not really a lubricant. Fact: While the “W-D” in WD-40 stands for Water Displacement, WD-40 Multi-Use Product is a unique, special blend of lubricants. The product’s formulation also contains anti-corrosion agents and ingredients for penetration, water displacement and soil removal.

Very little bike shop in Ireland small-town fixing bikes there closing down to much cost you have parts tool fixing your self no money during winter time

My chain up and down problem was dry new chain but oil chain stop on spot jumping gear up down mostly no oil new chains

Great tips man, just a heads up, WD40 is just a water displacer, not a lubricant... I got the ones with PTFE and silicone too, they're awesome.

Does it really count as a fix if you just replaced everything? I mean in that sense I 'fixed' my crappy VW Jetta. I sold it and bought a Honda.

Wow. Like many comments below I’d first find a different bike shop - the mechanic was either not very competent or that is how they pad their profit. I believe many of us have had skipping chain problems and if a simple derailleur adjustment does not solve it, in my experience it’s usually a worn, fraying cable, sticky worn out cable housing or something as simple as the cable bolt is loose, allowing the cable to slip ever so slightly but enough to cause skipping.

Sounds like the bike shop chose to fire the parts canon at your bike rather than ride it for a while and do a proper diagnosis. Derailleur hanger and making sure the shifter cable (and shifter) isn't binding would've been the first places to start. WD-40 isn't a lube, it's for displacing water. You need a foul weather lube for your derailleur's lubrication points, along with cleaning your chain properly and often in the winter. Just a few thoughts, though your result was helpful to know.

i got an xcaliber 9, and my chain started skipping a week ago. Only when i push hard on the pedal, or put my weight while standing. and only on the small cog. Pretty annoying, especially when you're commuting, stop at a light and when you pedal to go when its green.... IT SKIP. KACLUNK ill check what youre pointing out, i cant afford to change a whole derailleur and cog system right now.

The gospel, or the Good News, is the message of salvation through Jesus Christ. It tells us that all humans are sinners and separated from God because of our sinful nature. However, God loves us so much that He sent His Son, Jesus, to die on the cross for our sins. .. Jesus lived a perfect and sinless life, yet He willingly took the punishment for our sins upon Himself. He died on the cross, paying the price for our wrongdoing, and three days later, He rose from the dead, demonstrating His power over sin and death.. . .,Through faith in Jesus and His sacrifice, we can receive forgiveness of sins and be reconciled to God. Salvation is a free gift that cannot be earned through our own efforts or good works. It is by God's grace alone that we are saved. ,. To receive this gift of salvation, we must repent of our sins, turn to God, and place our faith in Jesus as our Lord and Savior. We can have assurance of eternal life and a personal relationship with God through Jesus Christ. , Romans 6:23 states that the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.. Thanks for reading, Godbless! ... .

That looks a hill and a half - good luck!

nice, and how much costs your negligence of chain maintenance? btw if you properly maintain chain it would lasts very long and if you replace it on time your cassette and ring gears would last 7-10 chains and then you should just to reshape teeth and game will start from beginning, so just chain replacement

So did you fire that bike shop for selling you all that s***

Wd40 will actually destroy a chain. It says it right on the can! The reason it stopped skipping is probably because the chain needs shortening and it's over lubricated and you washed off the excess oil with the Wd40.

Wd-40 is not a lubricant. It's a water displacement fluid, hence wd. There are much better lubricants out there.

Wow the bike shop saw you coming lol.
