Hello all
I'm using this bike to go to work, and it has been doing fine but lately the last gear started to jump while I ride it, and I can't find the way to make it stop
thanks in advance for your help !

First step is to clean the drivetrain though and start fresh. A cleaned and lubed drive train is a lot happier.
Firstly clean that gunk off the drive train and then adjust the barrel adjuster to adjust the cable tension..
If it’s not a derailleur issue it could be a stretched chain and/or worn chainring on the freewheel.
step 1, clean the chain and drivetrain
step 2, move off of the high gear and take a new video.
Thanks to you all for your help !
The video provided by u/Sierra93 showed me the way
I will clean m’y chain and all, promised, I’m just a total beginner at owning and taking care of a bike so I just put automobile black grease (molykote thingy) thinking I would do it good 😅
What in an automobile garage will do better in terms of lubricant ?
