Hello, I've added a new chain after one snapped on my commute yesterday. With any pressure then chain is skipping on the bottom three smallest sprockets.
I'm not sure whether it's a gears and indexing problem, or whether they are likely word teeth that would cause this to 'skip'. I can't tell if the chain is trying to move up the gears or the cassette can't catch?
Any pointers welcome! I'll add some images of the cassette below…

How long have you used the previous chain?
hi you need to change your cassette and chain.
I had a similiar issue. Tookit to a bike shop, they reccomened that i change the chain and cassette.
New chain on worn cassette => will skip, especially on the smallest cogs which wore the fastest.
You have to change the cassette.
It’s common that a new chain skips a little, it will stop after a while if isn’t a case of worn out cogs, wich in my opinion looks like. Other causes for this skipping are dirt and quick link not properly locked, check this two before buying a new cassette
