Finally Cleaned the Drivetrain

Cleaned the drivetrain for the first time in months. Embarrassing how much gunk came off those cogs.

Chain was stretched too. Replaced it before it ate the cassette. Should have done this weeks ago.

Test ride after. Shifts like new. Amazing what basic maintenance does.
