TIL I was running my chain way too tight for 3 years
Went to a shop in Nashville last month for a new rear tire, and the mechanic asked me why my chain was so tight. I told him that's how I always ran it. He showed me the manual spec and the slack it should have, like a full inch of play. All that time I thought tight was better for power delivery, but I was killing my sprockets and bearings. Anyone else get a basic thing wrong for way too long?
