mehukatti Posted March 16, 2005 Report Share Posted March 16, 2005 When switching from 22t to 20t front ring, does it make chain to snap more often in your experience? theoretically the smaller one should put more stress on the chain, but is it something that you should worry about or change your chain more often?

Tartridge Posted March 16, 2005 Report Share Posted March 16, 2005 Nothing to worry about in my experience, especially with a decent chain (KMC Kool, KHE Collapse chain) :- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matthewholdsworth Posted March 16, 2005 Report Share Posted March 16, 2005 sorry to jump in on the topic but ive been thinking the same thing recently, bout swapping rings. how much smaller is a 20t ring will it move chain in from the bashguard edge?

picki Posted March 16, 2005 Report Share Posted March 16, 2005 it moves the chain down further from the bash if thats what you mean? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
