So, despite not having a clue about mechanics at all, and my bike having been sitting in parts for the last week, I’m nearly done, but think I’ve hit a snag.
Got the raceface narrow/wide single chainring in what was the middle position, and as I am not great with hills, splashed out on a Hope 40t sprocket expander in place of the 17t. I think I have set up the rear derailleur (Shimano Zee, FR version), but the chain moves a biiiiiiiig way across/sideways from the top two cogs, especially the top one (40t) and doesn’t sound great!
There is very slight slack in the chain, is it worth removing an extra link and see if that keeps it on more? Any other ideas? Is this normal with a single chainring?
