Zwift Chat

[Whorty]

I had these issue too when i start to ride with my Drivo 2 trainer. Chain drop quite often from the chainring. Also i noticed that cassette was bit of different spot in trainer comparing rear wheel. So i need to adjust a bit of rear and front derailleur and also b-tension screw to have perfect shifting. So far so good.

Unfortunately my technical knowledge is limited to (just about!) being able to take off the back wheel and mount the trainer ... and i get this wrong sometimes I'm tempted to to get a X1 set up at some stage, but as Zwift allows the changing of realism I'm in no rush currently.

you could get a chain catcher - i have one on , if the chain sometimes wants to jump over small ring and jam inbetween ring and frame it could leave horrible marks on frame - or worse , a chain catcher stops it before it can get down there and it just slips onto small ring
can be a bit of a faff to get in right place but worth it - also front derailleur might be out a bit - just a screw to turn

Yes, had the issue with chain being jammed between frame and ring. Took ages to get out!

Anyone doing TOL Stage 5 tonight? I'm not feeling great (start of the traditional Christmas cold/flu I fear) but if I don't feel completely awful later I might give it a go - wondering what times others planning to do it?

Nope, it's my daughters 14 year old birthday today, so I will hopefully be off the bike until tomorrow night .

Or me

Or me

He's not a team player ... I expected more from @berty bassett . It's almost like he gets some kind of perverse pleasure from finishing first

Me, I'm very much a team player .... my role tends to be sweeper, you know, hanging out the back in case anyone drops off and needs help

Odd name for good lady, chain catcher

Dont give Carl a screwdriver,

Didn't Carl eventually gets his belt to stop slipping? So he can use a screwdriver sometimes .

Its the equivalent giving Bob a law book

Not sure about bob though.

I'll post this here and in the bkool thread. The last half hour or so is a remeberance of Paul Sherwin

I prefer a hammer .... a much more versatile tool

He did, I had to draw pictures and do instructions with videos
