I've done a lot of searching for videos about how the "ideal" gear change would look like and most if not all of them only display the rear spokes. What i'm interested in is the two big spokes up front, so if anyone has a link to what an smooth front spoke (not sure of proper term) looks like post here .

Reason I wish to know is because i've been doing a lot of fine tuning and I don't have a reference to what looks ideal. :l At the moment when I go from the smallest cog to the larger cog (mine only has 2 big cranks), The chain will start to be grabbed by the larger one while dragging along the side of the crank, then after grabbing it for a while it'll pop on.

Type of bike is a jamis Ventura comp

any other questions feel free to ask. Thanks
