    Hi. Recently asked a LBS to change chain and cassette on road bike (both 105) as it was skipping. Got it back and runs fine...except when I stand and push, it slips.

    Don't think know it's an indexing issue.....derailleur is directly underneath cogs. Looked today and the chain is a xt hg95 which appears to be a mtb chain. Could this be the cause? Bit pissed as I'd presume they would exchange like for like.

    Thanks

    It shouldn't really matter as both are 10 speed. Is your chain ring worn?

    As WA said, most likely a chainring or cassette issue. Put up a photo of the teeth and it should be easy to see.
