Good morning...

What will be the advisable chain length that i will use? How many links? Thanks.

 

Welcome!

 

Unfortunately there are no universal rules as to how many links long your chain should be, as there are a number of other factors that play into it, like:

  • Chain stay length
  • Hard tail or dual suspension
  • If dual suspension, how much travel and what type of linkage (this determines chain growth)
  • Derailleur cage length (this is a factor in the allowance for accommodating chain growth
As you can see, it can get quite complex.... if you want to take a theoretical approach to it.

 

The practical approach (fit, test, adjust) is way easier and there are a number of guides on how this can work.

 

 

 

Hope that helps!
