Chain slack

Post by bluetinfloor » Mon Aug 27, 2018 9:47 am

Been adjusting the chain on my NC35, been setting as recommended on side stand and noticed it then tightens up considerably when off the stand and upright. With recommended slack only being 15-25mm it feels pretty tight when upright. Do you set it on side stand or upright? Thanks

adjust it with you sat on the bike and suspension loaded. Put a latex glove on and pull it up with your left hand.
