Well, chamois cream is quite good for critical areas . . . dribble a *little* bit of oil on your chain once a week, or twice i it's wet. a drop of oil on the derailleur and brake pivots doesn't hurt once month. Unhook your derailleur cable housings and smear some oil on th inners. You should then have a smooth bike. (BTW, to do this, you nee to change into the big cog/ring, and then shift all the way up/dow without pedalling. You can pull the cables out of their stops (i slotted) then) M "Pro-Link ROCKS!!!" -- mfhor |
