Next job. Fit the chain.
Step 1 measure required length
Step 2 split the chain at the right link
Step 3 decide I'm one link too long
Step 4 pop out one more link
Step 5 f@#£ need to take out one more as my click link doesn't fit both sides
Step 6 pop out another
Step 7 f@#£ now I might be too short
Step 8 join the chain together
Step 9 move wheel forward in drop outs
Step 10 put chain on
Step 11 adjust wheel backwards and tighten
Step 12 done
Wheel is slightly forward but there is still some of the dropout in front of the axle so I should be fine
Photo to follow.
