you need a trans guy.....you will see it clear as day when disassembled....you wont wonder if you did the right thing...will be able to see dogs are worn from across the room.....this is as common with KZ as mustard on a hotdog.

the male dog engages with the indent of the gear on right. the leading edge of dog get worn down and a ramp is created....the same thing happens to the other edge. when you hammer on the bike it will ride up the worn (ramp) and jump out of gear. the pictue is of a race app and yours looks abit different.
