First forgive me if this is another fighting topic. I am really after knowledge.
before I got as into this on the level I am now..... I used to have the local hardware guy shorten my stretched chains by removing a drive link. Now that I know what I know, that does no seem kosher. Doesn’t that really throw things off, geometry wise, no matter what kind of sprocket system you are running? I am thinking my stretched chains should just be tossed. Am I wrong? Why?
on a positive note I figured the stretching was probably due to me over tensioning my chains. I have backed off a lot on the tension and the stretching is not such a thing.
