My 8 year old LX rear deraileur is starting to have difficulty moving to the smaller cogs. When I
make the shift I see the cable go slack. I can usually do a little bunny hop to get it to drop
down - but it's less than ideal. It shifts off the largest three gears fine, but won't do the
smaller cogs.
The only thing I can think of is that the spring inside the deraileur is loosing strength. Does
that make sense? Does anyone have another explanation for this problem? If it is the spring ... is
that fixable?
Looks like rain today ... but man .. .can't be without my bike for long! -Thanks
