When you’re taking on those techy or long slogging uphills there’s little worse than rough and grinding gears. The skipped cog and the crunch of the chain seem to hit at the vital moment when you need to dig in and clear yet another root!
Luckily these issues are often just a symptom of stretched or worn gear cables and can easily be remedied with a swift switch and a bit of mechanical TLC.
In this episode of the #MTBminute Chris Gibbs, H+I Adventures lead guide in Scotland, is back with his top tips for how to replace gear cable and get your gears gliding over the cogs smoothly again.
