chain tension

Wotcha.

My manual says i should have 25 - 35 mm. Does this mean sloppy slack, or total? what I mean is that if i push the chain up with my finger it moves about 30mm. But if I push a little harder i can move it further (about another 10mm), but the further movement is not entirely 'sloppy', if you catch my drift? It requires a little more force (still just using a finger though).


Ta.

You need to find the tightest part of the chain first.


Then is should be the correct tension with a little pressure, not excessive force (hard to say in words lol).
