i was wondering what this problem might be...
i own a 2000 homegrown pro, i bought it used. when i shift through the gears the shifters (Shimano Deore XT RapidFire SL) wont show the correct gear im in...its like the are frozen...the bike shifts but the orange thing inside the shifter is not highlighting the correct gear...
when im in the highest gear setting the bike skips when i pedal... also when im pedaling up a hill and put a heavy load on the pedals the bike skips as well...
im not sure why it skips and what i can do to fix this problem...the reason why i mentioned the part about the shifters is because im not sure if they are the problem or what....i also had it tuned up a year ago and i cannot recall if it did the same thing then because i never rode it then like i do now.
thanks guys im new to the site and would appreciate all feedback
