Hi all

When I'm on the biggest wrong on my rear sprocket I can hear a light ticking noise when I pedal.

The noise goes away when I keep the shifter pressed down, as the chain is then properly aligned with the sprocket (I think)

How would I adjust the derailleur to fix this? Do I need to change the limit screw or just the tension of the cable?

Pointers into the right direction are appreciated ๐Ÿ˜…

Thanks!

Park Tool has some nice videos that take you through the process of adjusting both the front and the rear derailleur. All you need is a screw driver and a few hex keys (possibly).

Calvin is great at clearly explaining these things, even if they promote their own tools quite a lot. (I am not affiliated with PT.)
