MONTHLY TECH TIP

THIS IS YOUR HOME FOR A TECHNICAL TIP THAT WILL HELP WITH THE PERFORMANCE OF YOUR RIDE, AND MAKE YOU SMARTER THAN THE GUY YOU RIDE WITH WHO DOESN'T KNOW HOW TO USE A COMPUTER!   

This month is how to adjust your chain correctly and keep it adjusted long into the ride. I know what you are thinking, ha "I allready know how to adjust my chain". If that was the case than why halfway through the day why is your chain way to loose or even worse too tight? Here is why, you didn't get the chain adjusters pulled up tight against your adjuster bolts before tightening that axle nut down. My solution is to allways put a rag between the top of the rear sprocket and the chain then rotate the wheel backwards till the chain is tight. When the chain tightens the axle blocks will be pulled tight againsts the adjuster bolts then tighten axle nut down.
