Hi I just got myself a Road BIke with the SRAM Apex as default groupset. I also discovered that I am unable to shift down to the bigger rear rings at the rear when I am using the Big Ring on my crank(Sorry if I am not using the right terms for describing this).
And when I am on the 2nd smaller ring on my crank, I am unable to shift up to the smaller rear rings at the rear.
What happens is if I do it either ways, the chain scrapes along the shifter module on the frame.
According to the bike guy from where I bought this, he says its like that with SRAM gearing.
Is this true?
Its like I have to remember which crank I am and rear sets before I change. Great shifting, unlike my Shimano XT on my MTB's but its kinda inconvenient to remember these things.
Would appreciate your expert feedback on this matter.
Thanks
