  1. Alright, so I have ultegra rear de. and 105 shifters.

    Anyways, I have a hard time going into the biggest cog, I have to hit it twice sometimes, and I cannot go into the smallest. When I shift into the smallest it will only stay for a few revolutions and then jump completely off.

    Please ask questions if it will assist people helping me.

    Here are the possibilities:
    Worn out or damaged chain and or cassette.
    Bad derailleur stop settings and maybe B screw.
    Bad cable tension.
    Cable interference from muck under BB or in housing.
    Damaged derailleur and/or derailleur hanger.
    Mismatched shifter/cassette gears.
    Cross chaining or other operator error.

    Check those things out and report back.

    Look at the chain for wear & the derailer top jockey wheel for too much play. There should be ~1 mm side-to-side movement in the top Jockey Wheel (pulley).
