    Time for my chain and sprocket change

    Trying to remember original chain length, i believe was 110 links
    sprockets were 16 and 45

    back in the day i went to a 47 tooth and always liked it

    can't remember if we got more links on chain or it worked with 110, was thinking of going a few links more?

    anyone have thoughts? thanks dave

    You can always shorten a chain and have the ability to fine tune where you want your rear axle.

    Just remember, regardless of how "heavy duty" a chain breaker is advertised as, always grind off the peened over pin head before pressing out.
