3x10, 2x10 1x10?

I have 3x10 and go for the 114 and shorten if need be.

Edit: they come with a quick link don't they? Wonder if that is one of the 114/112? Either way I take off the old chain and lay them side by side to match the length.

2 X 10 I use the same method to measure . Thought the longer one would be better option

Can you not just count how many links you have at the moment, then buy the appropriate one...?

chains stretch

True, but common sense and all that. It's not rocket surgery!
