Hi again all , as some of you will know i bought myself an Avanti Carbonio a few weeks ago, Well ive done around 350ks so far, Anyway I had the bike in for its first free service from where i bought it, took it home , went for a few rides but something was not right with the gears, jumping ,missing a gear etc , so i took it to the bike shop just down the road from me and one of the guys there went over it with a fine tooth comb, anyway he used a gadget that he put on the rear gear hanger,{ hope thats what its called?}and he spun it around the rim to gauge how true the wheel was inline with the frame, turns out there was a 5 to 7 mil differance from top of the wheel to the bottom, and thats why the gears were not working right , he charged me $16 and now the gears are fantastic!!!!! A little time and effort goes a long way , he'll get my custom from now on!! It seems a shame the guys where i bought the bike from never picked up on it?
