Keep in mind that when you're riding the tension on the chain will make it a little more slack. I adjust mine to be a tiny bit tighter than I want when it's in the work stand. While pedaling, the chain will be properly tensioned.
Also, single speed setups aren't as sensitive to chain tension as fixed gear bikes. You can get away with much less tight chain because you're not going to use backpressure at all. –Eric N > On Mar 19, 2016, at 2:23 PM, Ron Mc <bulldog...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Generally, the center span of the chain should be able to deflect about a > half-inch vertically. > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "RBW Owners Bunch" group. > To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an > email to rbw-owners-bunch+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com. > To post to this group, send email to rbw-owners-bunch@googlegroups.com. > Visit this group at https://groups.google.com/group/rbw-owners-bunch. > For more options, visit https://groups.google.com/d/optout. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
