Re: chain??

It's fairly normal. Most sprockets have an oval shape that can't really be seen by the naked eye. Spin your wheel till its at its tightest spot and adjust your chain there. You'll be good.

Re: chain??

old chain? part of it is more than likely streched more that another. It happens unless the chain has less than 5g miles on it I just replace it. A parts unlimited o ring chain is only like 100 bucks.
