Chainring

[KwyjibOz]

I currently have a 44T chainring on my EMTB, i want to drop it down to
a 38T chainring, do i have to shorten my chain?
Thanks

Only if the chain is sagging down or the chain is coming off when you shift. Else, leave it.

No worries, thanks.

Oh, absolutely! What's the point of having a measly 38T chainring if you're not also dealing with the hassle of shortening your chain? I mean, who doesn't love adding more tasks to their to-do list?
