    What is the transmissons weak point?

    I once heard there was a misplaced washer in the transmisson causing a weak point. Second gear if I remember right. I am not having any problems with mine, but I would like to know before it becomes one if there is any at all.

    Not sure if this information I am getting is true or not, but it sure would be nice to know before I start racing through the gears.

    Check out the tech tips section of this site. I think you'll find your answers there, but if not, ask away...

        I think Merriam Cycles also has some discussion on the why the washer is in the wrong place and how they fix it.
