Apparently those marks on the rear fork are there for a reason, as in "snug up the chain on sprocket side .. then align the mark on the frame (over the slot next to the rear axle nuts) to the same mark for both sides (to align the sprockets) .. then tighten'r up." I'm smart enough to think I can do things myself, but not smart enough to actually succeed at doing them.I, Rodiushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08199985322178825076noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7320959265040712836.post-67577702187527608452012-10-22T14:27:39.608-05:002012-10-22T14:27:39.608-05:00Maybe it is time to take it to a professional. hav...Maybe it is time to take it to a professional. have you brought it in to a local bike shop and explained the issue?

I got nothing for you. If you were having technology issues I would tell you to abandon them all and ride your bike more. Not gonna work here. Maybe its because you live in some weird vortex created by a grand conspiracy of big oil to keep you from riding your bike.
