280 Pro Chain Length

Featured Replies

Hello,

Just after some info on chain lengths Vs sprocket sizes.

I was running 11/42 with 51 links(102 pins) including split link. I`ve now changed to a 10/42 and the chain was too long, so I`ve taken a link out and now it`s too short. I bought a half link joiner, but having problems with that too, as the pins are to fat for the joiner. Anyway, just wondered what size chains people are running with 10/42? and weather it`s just my chain stretched too much, either way, there doesn`t appear to be much adjustment on the cams from 1 extreme to the other.

Also, the reason I went down on the front rather than up on the back was purely cost driven. After riding the 10/42 I`m well pleased with it, and the next time I buy a new chain/sprockets I`m thinking I may go 11/46, is anyone else running 11/46 if so how many links is in your chain?

Thanks,

John

Hello mate,

Think yours were 11/41 as I remember.
