Chain Length

[Kallie.]

Hi Hubbers,

 

This might be a stupid question and has probably been answered here before, but I couldn't find anything in the search.

 

I am changing the chainrings on my MTB from a 40/28 setup to 38/26, do I need to shorten the chain or will I get away with leaving it as is?

 

Thanks
