post edit. you don't have 8 on the cassette. And that chain is really dry.


Yes, it's been a couple weeks, I'll lube it up tomorrow. The front sprocket is a single.
It shifts and hits all 7 gears perfect....it just bounces the chain off the front on big bumps.

I looked at the B screw and I'm thinking backing it out a small bit will give it more tension.

You are correct....I only have 7 gears....my bad.
So it happens mostly in 6 because I hardly ever use high (7) gear.
Same situ just one gear less.
