Can I get a sanity check on this chain length?
Photos show it in small/small, small/large and large/large. It’s not rideable in larger large but any extra chain length would make it unrideable in small/small. I thought a tighter chain would d better but maybe I should have left it rideable in large/large rather than small/small?
The mech seem very far from the cassette when going up through the gears with it in the large ring, is that just how mechs are these days?
Front chainring are 30/46, cassette is 11/43 and rear diameter is a Deore 5130.
