- What did you do!?!
I'm just wondering though... Is it really worth any possible headaches? :blink: I know you save a little cash, but do I have to "take it easier" on the 530?
Will I get that much more accell/weight savings? :huh:
so many Q's ??

It was 16/39 I think... or maybe 16/40
I've heard that that is actually the best all around performance ratio 16/39=(2.4375), or around 2.5
PS. Nice Bike

Chains measured in Rule of Eights
First number 6 = 6/8 = 3/4" link length.
Second two numbers are width.
3.0 = 3.0/8 = 3/8" link width.
Good Luck!
