So GW your point is some folk may want the chain tighter than TJ suggests?

If so why not say so in as many words? If not then how about gracing them with an explanation.

If I have this right then does this always allow enough slack to shift on to the largest cog? By your definition, it seems not.

I don't post here very often but whattaloadabollox! 🙂

Pop the chain round the biggest everything and make it as short as you can. Easy!
Works for singlespeed, 1 x anything, 2 x anything and 3 x anything.

See?

I just used TJ's method for my 1x10 but left an extra link in just in case. I'm glad I did as I needed it but I'm using a short cage mech.
