Upshifting is perfect, however indexing going down both 1 or 2 shifts is a little off. Had a search but jsu keep finding info on adjusting lever reach, is there a decent idiots guide to adjusting the indexing?

shifters/cables are less than a year old (done about 1000km). Was a flat bar trigger shifter bike, moved over to drops. Shifting was fine for first 6 months. Never adjusted anything on the bike at all, even with the switch over it indexed correctly straight away.

looking on strava the chain has done 2400kms, should it be worn on that much?

so no stretch over 12" of chain. Could do with a bloody good clean, knew I shouldn't have gone out in the rain on stty roads last week. Will give it all a good clean up first and see if shifting improves
