This site listed it http://www.reginachain.it/eng/use_and_ma...to07.shtml and I was trying to understand what the effect of a misaligned rear sprocket may be and my conclusion (correct me if I'm wrong) was worst case the chain would come off, but if it was out just by a bit then the chain may alternate between slightly tight and slightly loose which could make it a bit whippy?
Ideas?
If the rear wheel is untrue then the chain "tries" to move over on the sprocket but then corrects itself, so it would just cause a lumpy, knocking feeling which you'd feel in your foot.
