    Chain slow when back pedaling

    When I'm doing regular maintenance, my chain is often reluctant and choppy when I back pedal (bike is upside down)....the bike seems to function fine when I'm riding it I keep it pretty well lubed and cleaned

    What is the most likely culprit?

    -chain needs replacement
    -derailleur needs adjustment

    I would love to hear any similar experiences or advice any of you have

    Thanks!
