    185s chain adjustment

    thanks to all who have given advice on my "GREENHORN" problem. I got the hub bolts loose, but the actual chain adjustment nut and bolt were already tightened to the max. the chain still has at least AN 1" and a 1/2 of slack. How do i get the slack out???
    Thanks

    Buy a larger front sprocket or a new chain is probably whats really needed .
    You might be able to remove 1 whole link for a cheap fix .

    you can try to take a link out, but your chain is probably stretched out and a replacement is in order.should do sprockets with a chain redo also.replace as a set
