Chain adjustment

gregfreefaller · Sep 17, 2017

Hi all, just putting a new rear sprocket and chain on the berg.

How far forward do I want the wheel with a brand new chain on?

I can see some notches but not sure where the limit is.

Any advice appreciated

The swing arm has two notches the sliding part has 3?

Look at the manual for the adjustment you require. I use 1.5 inches of deflection from the center and top of swing arm guide. It is not about where to set it or up to what marks, but about the play in the chain as all chains are not the same exact spec. The marks are for a guide to alignment of your wheel.

It's all looking good.
Now running a 16T on the front and a 38T rear. It's got a fair bit more too end and I don't seem to be maxing out as soon now. Still not getting a speed wabble, not sure if this is good or if something could be wrong.......
