The latter is a definite, according to the website, and is certainly one reason this is happening to folks.
Resolving either need not be particularly expensive: lots of clutched derailleurs out there that will solve that issue and are compatible. Same with affordable chainrings (if the stock crank will take a different ring) and/or cranksets. Consult your dealer for suggestions?
Thank you very much for your reply. The interesting thing is, it does not happen to everyone. Some ppl never had it happen once.
I am waiting to get the bike built and will go from there. I am planning to be slowly upgrading it anyway.
