I throwed a chain off yesterday and I have noticed that my rear sprocket is not lined up with the front sprocket. The chain is not running straight. I have my chain adjusted right on both sides. I don't know if maybe the guy before me put the wrong bearings in or something. Does anyone know what it could be?

It could be that your rear sprocket is mounted on the wrong side of the sprocket hub. If it were it would throw everything out of wack.

Thanks Alot for the help, that is exactly what the guy had done before I got it, he had the sprocket bolted to the wrong side of the hub.
