My first trainer ride this fall I started to have problems shifting from the small to the big ring. It just will not go. I usually just deal with it during the workout, and then try to fix it afterwards. And afterwards, in the trainer or the workstand, it works fine! I have indexed the front and rear, ensured proper cable tension, etc, etc.
Today - same thing again. Front just won't go. And then, to make matters worse, when putting out about 300W and throwing the rear into the small cog (hardest gear) my chain dropped between the cog and the seat stay. After the workout I put the bike in the stand, and it shifts beautifully. Rear limit screws flawless.
I'm starting to think it's my bike telling me to pull the trigger on that etap gruppo I have my eye on, but since I refuse to believe in inanimate objects controlling my life, I'm asking you: how have I bodged my shifting setup that it works fine in the workstand but completely shits the bed under load?
