I'm not mega skilled mechanically so a query:
Bike with 6 speed freewheel runs fine, but using sprints, so in case of punctures on country roads, i popped on a pair of clinchers.
chain fine, checked with guage, no stiff links...derailleur a bit sloppy on the pivot pins but shifts well on the sprints with a 6 speed Regina freewheel ; the clincher has a 6 speed Atom and wont behave, chain spins over the top or ramps.
No visible signs of extreme wear on either freewheel.
Is this purely because the old chain and freewheel have 'bedded in' together and another freewheel wont work?
any advice really appreciated.
