I’ve had the derailleur hanger replaced, the chain, and the cassette and also had it tuned many times but can’t seem to get rid of this. it dosen’t seem like much when I’m pedaling hard on this one specific gear my pedals will kinda just jolt forward and I’ll sometimes lose my pedals

edit it seems like its catching on the gear above it but I can’t really tell

edit 2 it’s on the second to lowest gear not the lowest

Chain catching on only one gear

  1. Does it only do this for specific links? I know you said you changed the chain but the pins could be binding up and causing it to not want to straighten out once it leaves the cassette.

    If you suspect this, you can mark that link with a sharpie and see if it acts weird going around the jockey wheels

  2. Loosen the qr skewer while the bike is on the ground, then retighten. I bet the wheel is very slightly crooked in the dropouts.
