yo i think your chain is upside down

ive got the same one and onetime i put it on upside down and it snaped like 5 mins later :S

My chain is in fact purposely flipped so it will clear properly running it with a 12 tooth cog.

iv got the same one and 1/4 of it is upside down lol ill put it back sooner than later

nouser (Dec 31, 2009 at 8:44)

Oh I see

When I ran the chain normally with the 12 tooth, it wouldn't sit right. Works perfectly now and has held up for months.

the chain's actually on right, even though it doesn't look like it. i had that chain and the box said the notches are supposed to face outward for grinds and stuff cuz it's a bmx chain

1. that would make it bad for grinds, jack
2. i have the same chain and ran it up side down for a year for the same reason. worked fine so dont worry about it
3. i want your lighter
4. meow.....

Anyone think maybe CR's super-duper-one-of-a-kind NS might have shorter stays? A remote possibility, but a possibility nonetheless. His tire/rim choice shouldn't be that much diff'runt height-wise.

Yup. I had the tire off to change a tube anyways so I took this pic as a reference for CR. Then the tensioners went back on and I slid that shit back to where it belongs.

recklessness (Jan 4, 2010 at 5:06)

I have done this a few times and they have all held up brilliantly. This is a KMC 710SL with 1 Shadow Con Half link.
