I am at end of tether, i have changed cassette, chain , cables outer and middle ring and its still slipping in lower gears.
Any ideas. Have changed above all at same time on a 3 x 10 slx /xt set up.
Thanks
Not sure but maybe the freehub is on its way out . My formula branded hub did something similar.
If the chain is slipping on the cassette are you getting enough wrap around? Could possibly be a badly adjusted B-screw...
Is it possible it is the free hub going and the chain isn't jumping at all? Gives similar symptoms but usually a more mechanically grim sound. Just a thought.
Strange you say about freehub. The rear wheel is only 6 weeks old but i cant see it being anything else.
Does it slip on all 3 chainrings?
Try a different rear wheel in there, borrow one from another bike or friend if you can.
At least that should rule out the freehub or not.
Yes slips on all three chainrings.
Probably free hub not freehubbing. If bike is only 6 weeks old, then I'd be looking at springs and pawls in case of poor assembly. Also worth considering that if water has got inside the free hub, it's possible it could actually be frozen this time of year. Does this happen after the bike has been indoors for a bit, too?
Correct chain for the set up (9sp, 10sp, 11sp, etc)?
