if im not mistaken, looks like you have tight spots

If your chainring is pretty far out of true, you can take it to your lbs, and they can true it up for you. I had this done to my bike, and it helped the drivetrain run smoother. So if you're still having problems after centering your chainring, you might want to give that a try.

is the chainring out of 'true' or is it out of "round'? I think like wheel true would refer to side to side movement. round would be diameter. tight and loose spots might be a sign of the ring og cog not being round is your axle bent?
