hello
i have UTFSed and googled extensively on this, but can't find what i am looking for...
i have got a charge plug and the chain is very noisy, it is the standard half link chain that comes with it. i spoke to one of the guys in cavendish cycles and he said that they were directional and maybe that was the problem. i have tried the chain the other way round, and it is even worse and even seems to catch slightly so i have put it back the way it was.
the way it is now is the narrow part of each link engages first with the cog. this seems to be the right way...
can anyone recommend a decent (non half link?) chain that will work for my set up? i have the standard sugino messenger chain ring and 16t cog from blb.
any thoughts?
