Chain Skipping
When ridng hard, in 54 x 15 or lower, my chain starts to skip. Last time out it skipped twice then fell off. I put it back on and the same thing happened. Any thoughts?

Had similar problem. Turned out the rear derailer needed a good cleaning. It had accumulated enough crud to keep it from flexing correctly to keep tension on the chain.
