Re: Fixing Chain Tension

Do keep in mind that the required measurements for chain tension are with the rear wheel on the ground with the suspension compressed due to bike weight. Always go to the max end of the measurement, it is easier on the drive train components. A chain that is too tight can reek havoc if/when you hit a pot hole or big dip in the road. Found that out on my first bike.
