I put a new chain on my bike the day before yesterday and when I went riding yesterday it felt like I had a little road buzz. I checked to make sure everything was lined up, but didn't, or couldn't, find anything wrong. Does anybody have a clue what this could be. I feel it more when I'm putting more pressure on the pedals. Thanks for any help or suggestions.

How many speeds on your bike? Shimano, Campy, other? What was your old chain, if you know. What is your new chain? Answers may help us start down the right path.

It was a 9 speed Shimano chain and I went with the Sram, but I was just outside playing with it and I think it's the Shimano pedals which are the 520s. Thanks for reply.

False alarm, it was the pedals. Thanks for the reply.
