Does anyone know what the problem might be? The chain isn’t running smoothly; it’s like it’s struggling. The problem persists even after the bike service on the same day.
Either a little to much tension the cable or a bent hanger.
Photos might help.

Does it only happen when you backpedal?

What happens when you pedal forwards?

Stupid question, but is the chain designed for that cassette? You’re not trying to run an 8-speed chain on a 10 speed cassette for example?

I have had this issue after installing a new chain and cassette. It was the correct length and speed. Turns out it wasnt an issue after all, havent had any problems while cycling. After a bit of wear it disappeared aswell.
