...
Should a chain be replaced when front chain rings are replaced? I ask
because I've replaced the chain rings and found that there is what seems
to be a regular "lag" when pedalling ... the chain seems to take a half a
turn before it takes effect. There are no broken teeth in the rear
casette, which along with the chain were replaced about 100 miles ago.
Is there a solution.

So : you've got a chain, cassette which are 100 miles old and chainrings
which are brand new? Should be no problems there.

When you say "Chain seems to take about half a turn before it takes effect",
is this just your freewheel ratchet sticking? When you freewheel, is the top
part of the chain going slack?

Is anything making horrible noises? (If it's the freewheel, I'd expect not)
