A couple other variables to check - - slack or poor seating in the cable housing/ferrule interface. That would tend to make itself known as you increase pressure. (I once found that an extra ferrule had been stuck into the derailleur body itself - couldn't see it, but realized that the other ferrule wasn't seated correctly). - a loose freehub body. These are tightened into the hub shell with a hollow hex-head bolt. You have to remove the axle to tighten this. - loose cogs on the freehub. If the lockring loosens. In the latter two examples, you will feel either play of the sprockets, or the sprockets will be tight but the whole cogset will move together. hope that helps, - J -- Jim Edgar cyclofi...@earthlink.net Cyclofiend Bicycle Photo Galleries - http://www.cyclofiend.com Current Classics - Cross Bikes Singlespeed - Working Bikes Your Photos are needed! - Send them here - http://www.cyclofiend.com/guidelines "I threw one leg over my battle-scarred all-terrain stump-jumper and rode several miles to work.
