Just changed my chain and now I'm getting skipping on certain gearing so i know something's worn out but how do I tell if it's the cassette that needs replacing or the chainring?
Also, how long (miles) can you ride with the new chain on this bad setup (avoiding the gears that skip) before that new chain is also stretched/ruined (or will ruin the new stuff)? (I don't know how soon I can get the new cassette/chainrings but I don't want to stop riding)
Info on situation:
1. About 7,000. on drivetrain AND on chain
2. Problem (skipping) started after chain replacement
3. LBS switched my Shimano HG-73 to a SRAM chain. Both 9-speed.
4. Never changed the cassette before. Changed rear wheel 1K miles before.
