Quick question, When on the small chain ring and granny ring if I pedal backwards the chain wants to drop, if I pedal forward it doesn’t look like the chain is seated properly. It’s not affecting how it rides, but I don’t like noises.

I know you guys aren't drag racing fans but 338 mph in 1000 feet is pretty impressive.

I was a toddler when that picture was taken. But I was probably at the track that day.
