I didn't oil the chain nearly enough on my last bike, to the extent that it was spitting out shards of o-ring and was so solidly kinked I could feel it kick through the footpegs every time it went round the front sprocket. I fixed this by riding harder until it loosened up/I got used to it. I proceeded to stall on fitting a new chain for almost a year after I identified these issues.

Went to change the front sprocket just now and found the sprocket nut loose. Not finger tight, just rolling free. Thank god for lock washers...

PO actually did two! I was PO this time, as the last sprocket change was done by me (I did use the lock washer though) e/ I did two flaps this time, just in case. Renaissance Robot fucked around with this message at 16:33 on Dec 5, 2020 |

Slavvy posted:The flap did it's job perfectly, bending over two won't make it somehow twice as locky. I've seen loads of bikes that rode fine where the sprocket was held on by the lock washer alone. The issue is you didn't tighten the nut enough in the first place, it should never come loose lock washer or not. Wrench was set to 128Nm, struggled to make it click (though it did) even giving it everything I had with both arms. Don't really know how much harder I can tighten it!

Gf's JS125 is definitely missing the cush drive (or at best has a very worn one) because I can rock the wheel back and forth quite a bit without the chain moving at all. I'm the PO because I can't be arsed fixing it, though neither of us is riding it hard enough to make much difference. Unrelated, I'm a double PO because I really half arsed cleaning my brake pots when I replaced the pads a couple weeks ago and now they're seizing again.
