I wasn't concentrating when i put my new sram chain on and I made it the right length but with 2 female ends, not 2 male ends. Thus the chain is now 1 link shorter than the old one, which was already too short.
it seems to "ride", but the reat derailleur is pulled really far forward, and there isn't really much of an "s".
I have a race tomorrow, leaving at dawn, and I am worried about racing on such a chain.
is riding possible with a too short chain?
The only solution I can think of is to use the one spare sram power link I have, plus a wipperman connex link to add some of the unused spare excess chain to make it longer.
will this work? Is 3 connection links in one chain asking for trouble? does wipperman connex link work with a SRAM chain and cassette?
please help.....
