I have a middrive e bike and I noticed today when riding around that if you are in too high of a gear (3-4-5-6) and you gun it from a standstill the chain starts to "pop". It doesn't necessarily slip, but it's kind of concerning. What are the reasons for this happening? Is it because the chain is not lubricated enough or something? Also I have to chains, one from the motor to the crankset, and one from the crankset to the rear gears. I'm not sure which one is doing the popping but I feel like it's the motor chain. This isn't a huge problem for me or anything because it just happened that today on accident I started in like fourth gear, I usually start at first and make my way up and the chain doesn't pop.
