Hello all,
My new pro-connect has done around 200 miles so far and is going very nicely apart from a reluctance to settle in 4th gear, this being the gear I generally use to pull away in. Quite often it seems not to have changed properly, even though 4th is indicated, and then graunch in as I'm half way across a roundabout or a junction, which is most unsettling. I've put a 16t sprocket on so it may be a chain tension issue. I only took one link out when changing the sprocket but I did notice that you can up the tension on the chain tensioner spring by moving it round a notch - that seemed to make it tight enough. Anyway, I'll try taking another link out and see if that helps.
Fiddling with the bike when stationary I notice that gear 4 seems a bit 'different' from the rest - it makes slightly more noise changing in or out.
Has anyone else had any trouble with one of these hubs? I'd love to understand in more detail how they work - are there any good sites out there I should look at?
Cheers
Pete
