I'm a total novice so may not explain this to well.
My hard tail has 30 gears........3 x 10.
When I am on middle cog at the front (chain ring) all the gears on the back change smoothly both up & down all sprockets.........apart from one of them.
Not sure exactly which sprockets but its either from the 4th to 5th OR 5th to 6th.
What happens is.... I click the lever to change and nothing happens.
I give it just another light pull and it then changes.
Going back the other way is no problem.
If it was a problem on all gears then I could understand it and try something (not sure what :smile: ) but as I say.......its just that one change giving the problem.
Any suggestions as to what I could try ??

Screw the adjuster on the rear mech out a half turn, or perhaps a turn.
Thanks
I have have a look to see if I can identify the adjuster and give it a try.
I am just concerned that all the others work fine.......I dont want to cause problems with them!!
