Hi,

Just started to get into mb over the past few months, had no problems until tonight, was returning home on my bike, I changed up from the front middle clog, up to the large clog<going at good pace standing up> on doing this the chain got stuck, It appears that I ve bent the cage on the front mech

Gears were perfect before this happened!<doh> my gears still change but when in middle and large rings, and smallest cogs on back the chain is rubbing against this, I tried for 5 mins when I got back to bend it back a little to no avail, is there a quick fix to this? or would I have to go about getting a new cage? If anyone has any ideas to get the gears back to normal it would be greatly appreciated

Also when I change to 1st gear it appears to be rubbiing as well! I don,t wanna try anything without advice.

many thanks
