So, as the new build slowly crawls along its now time to fit the new chain.

Does the normal rule apply? Big to big plus 2 links with the shock compressed?

I’ve never had anything other than double or triple before and don’t want to destroy a new drivetrain.

I’m sure sram recommended more check there website out think they recommend 4 links with there 1×11 setup

Yeah, I seem to remember reading 4 links in s review. I’m running the XT M8000 set up.

I’ll try with the shock compressed and see where I get to.

Big to small through the mech, with the mech in the nine o’clock position when the chain is tensioned.

No mech. Biggest sprockets. 4 links

I’ve just watched the One up installation video. Incredibly helpful

They say big to big with 4 links whilst compressed.

Cheers all
