Here the thing about chain - most people here tend to just change the chain for a shiny smooth one after months of dirt and grimes, this is where I'm stumped; doesn't a new chain have to be put on really tight as it need to be 'worn' out a bit stretching it before tightening it a bit again?
if so, it'd be a bit of a bastard if you don't have a chain tugs!
