This Cyclone GT decided it didn't really care for wrapping chain about 50 miles into my ride Saturday, so I set it to 44/16 did the last 20 miles single speed. Broke it down on Sunday to find the pivot was bone dry. To be fair I hadn't gone through this mech since I bought this bike at the end of summer. Cleaned it up, lubed the springs and pivots and (unsurprisingly)... shifting performance has been greatly improved.
