How To Fix Bike Chain Skipping/Slipping/Jumping Gears

I show the most common causes for chains that skip, slip, jump gears while pedaling (auto-shifting/phantom shifting derailleur), especially while under torque like climbing up a hill or standing on the pedals. And explain what needs to be done to fix them.

now it is skipping 7th gear and when my bike is in first gear and I shift to second. it does nothing and makes a loud different noise then the other shifts
When I shift up on my bike the pedal jumps a little bit. But it does go into correct gear. What can be the problem? I already replaced a worn chain
I had a REALLY bad bike crash and my chain popped off how should i put it on and is there a gear I need to shift the bike to when i put it on
thanks from- a not-so good biker

Hi RJ,
I am trying to restore a SR Suntour fork.
I got the plastic tool for the top caps but the top cap is stuck and I cannot undue it with the small plastic tool.
Got any tips for undoing stuck plastic caps without ruining them?
the suntour tool has a very small handle and i cannot undue the top cap with it
Hi Rj! My dropout have 8mm of thickness to suport the rear axle, and my axle has quick release. Would you recomend that the amount of axle protruding past locknut have exactly 8mm? In my case the axle has 4mm protruding. Thanks for attention! Love your channel!!
Thanks for all the Videos. Very helpful. I have 3 questions. I recently heard that on shimano chains, you cannot push a pin back in the other direction after using a chain break tool. You need to replace the pin with a new one. Is this true? 2nd question. Can you use metric ball bearings? for example, 6mm instead of 1/4 inch(6.35mm). And 3rd. Have you considered doing regular Q&A videos?
Pls help
The teeth in my freewheel is like slanted
How can i fix it
Can you make a video of how to tune up a bike?
how do you adjust a hub shifter?
Hello RJ. My bycicle has a cheap front fork and it doesn't absorb impacts at all. I've tried lubing it but it didn't help. What if i remove one spring from the fork… instead of 2 i'll have 1. Should i do it?
RJ. Skipping when pedaling hard could be caused by loosed chain? I have mounted dropout screws with springs, and my rear wheel is closer to the front for about 0,3 – 0,5 cm. Chain is not worn. Cassete neither. Would be grateful for answer. Thanks!
thanks for that free information it is great… but i have a serious problem with my bike… i have a btwin elops 300 2016 and the problem is whene i push the bike to the limit i feel like a vibration in my foot whene i m pedal… thats make me crazy… thanks a lot again.
Ok thanks rj
