Jumping the chain
Dropped the chain yesterday about 30 miles from home and had to dig out the road to get the rear to turning so I could re-mount it. Clever wins the day because that would have been a long walk.
I kept feeling a spin out kind of feeling the past weeks in every bump on the road. Guess I know what’s going on now. I was blaming the knobby tire and shock setting. Looks like the bike just despises the 17/43T set up. O well, the 41T and 43T both lowered the top speed so I’ll move back to the 46T again.

I ran a 17/43 for several thousand miles without issue.
