Chain Adjusters

[TRO73]

I just switched my front sprocket to a 15 and my rear to a 40. I ordered a 104 link chain and when I put it on to get all the slack out my adjusters are almost all the way screwed in...maybe 4 threads left..but if I remove 1 link it is too short. So can you buy extra long adjusting bolts so if I need to adjust it later from stretch.

you could try that ! also you can run your chain alittle looser if you run a chain tensioner like sandtoyz unlimited and rdz sells they work good!

I purchased a bolt kit from alloy bolts and their kit had the same problem. The adjuster bolts were to short. Well it wasn't that they were to short. They had a shoulder on them witch is not possible for full adjustment. So i replaced mine with some longer ones. Even if you buy them too long, you can always cut them down. If so, be sure to grind a good lead pitch on the threads so you don't strip out the adjuster

you can try checking out your chain rollers and replace if needed that should take up some slack
