Default Help clutch or trans problem

I just had the tranny rebuilt and a spec3i put in. Now sometimes it locks me out of 1st gear at a stop and when down shifting into 3rd it grinds. Is this a trans problem or clutch. Please help.

Well it almost sounds like both. Can you pump the pedal & then it'll go in first?
Downshifting into 3rd at high RPM? Was the fork replaced with a steel one?

Forks were replaced with steel ones, and it grinds at high RPM's into 3rd, and getting it into 1st it just takes awhile. I sometimes go into a different gear first then back into first.

It does sound like a possible trans problem. Was it rebuilt w/a warranty?
