Chain length

[drgnslayr72]

I just recieved my chain/sprocket combo  today.  14F / 45R and a RKXSO O-Ring chai w/ 114 links. I got that lenght on the advice of the parts rep. I've noticed that most of the post reccomend 112 links. Will the 114 work?

Should work for now but you might run short of adjustment before the chain is worn out.  The 14/45/114 will move the axle back a little over a half inch.  I added 14/45/114 to my list, you can find the chain length calculator in the Wiki.  A 112 would be better I think.

I saw the 112 reccomondation on several of the boards and when I went to order the guy said I need a 114

joshr08 on here is running your same sprocket sizes with a 112 link chain.  if its a masterlink style chain, it wont be hard to shorten it 2 links

I just got done messaging him...He told me how to shorten it up...I was hoping to get a little more torque out of it..Mayby a power wheelie or 2...but he says he doesnt feel like it'll do that..i no . i no   squid like actions....but who doesn't like 2 have fun in aa parking lot

no need for a power wheelie, just clutch it up.  if you want to power wheelie, you have bought the wrong bike, lol  but I love mine
