Hey everyone,
My clutch cable is new and has less than 200 miles on it.
Went to my bike this morning and the clutch cable was all of a sudden very loose. It was so lose that squeezing the lever wouldn't even disengage the clutch. If I screw the lever adjustment screw out almost all the way I can ride the bike, but I didn't have to do that yesterday which is odd.
What could have happened overnight to mess up the clutch adjustment? I checked the lock nut on the worm gear and it was tight so I know the worm gear adjustment didn't back off because of vibrations.
Furthermore, when I went to ride the bike it it jerks and lugs a bit when I am changing gears in the exact moment before I completely release the clutch lever at the end of the gear change.
Any ideas?
Best,
Adam
