You are right; I missed the reference to the masterlink. I immediately
withdraw my $10 charity offer.

A tight link can be the cause of skipping issues, but I think it's unlikely
given that the most common cause of tight links is the process of joining a
chain by inserting or re-inserting a pin. The OP makes reference to "a
second power link" being used to splice in the extra chain links, making
Not top and bottom *run*, top run of chain, forefinger on top and thumb on
bottom. Sheesh.

I mean this: put bike in stand. Pinch chain with left or off-hand thumb and
forefinger at, respectively, top and bottom of top run of chain. Hold
forefinger and thumb slightly askew so chain makes a very slight "S" bend,
up and down, as you "backpedal" it using right hand.

I had many maddeningly frustrating experiences like this. Install new chain
with chain tool; chain new, drivetrain in good condition, clean and well
lubed; all in alignment. What the **&$&!!!* is the matter???
Tight link. You can't see it, and you don't notice it when you "pedal" the
drivetrain
Brett- Unless you're a mega-miler, I doubt you could have worn down a
Silver crankset yet.
Must be something else.

I had a the exact problem and took bike to my LBS. They said that I didn’t have
my cable properly affixed to Altus. He routed it “properly” and things worked
well.
Good luck,

Hi Tim, relatively certain. The crankset is the Rivendell Silver double. I
use the big ring almost exclusively and it shows some signs of wear on the
teeth. The small ring goes basically unused unless I'm loaded for camping
and the teeth show almost no wear. The slippage occurs whether in the
I had this problem in the past. After a long process of elimination it turned
out that it was the shimano freehub on the newer xt hubs causing this issue. I
replaced the freehub and it was fine for a while but then happened again.
Switched hub. Problem never came back.

You didn't mention the condition of the crankset. How are its teeth?
Aka, are you positive that the skip is happening in the rear of the
drivetrain?

Setup: My Atlantis is running a rivish setup. 8 speed Shimano Cassette,
11-32; 8 speed SRAM chain; Shimano Altus rear derailleur; indexed 8 speed

without issue.
