Mirage Drive Maint. - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

CKallday71 · 04-14-2014, 10:20 AM

On my last La Jolla trip I was pedaling hard against the current and ran over some kelp without seeing it. It gummed up the Mirage drive while I was pushing and I think I either stretched something or maybe pushed something out of adjustment.

What's happening is that when I pedal down with my right foot and up with my left, there is a "Thunk" sound like a chain missing a cog or something. I've looked at the chains and cogs and cables and everything seems fine, nothing bent that I can see.

Any suggestions or should I just take it down to Andy at OEX for a once over?
