9100 chain. Length looks good, maybe 1 link too long. 6 links starting with an inner at their intersection. Would removing a link be going in the right direction for my problem?
Seperate from the b-gap, your chain is inside out. They are directional so you should see the logos on the outside of the chain but not inside. I’m still willing to bet your issue is chain length. Compress your shock all the way without air or spring and make sure it’s not too short or long.
Took a link out and it got worse even though according to the shimano manual it was a link too long. Shortening the chain pulls the alignment line on the cage away from the cassette.
