Subject: DiD chain and the FAQ


I thought anyone who was interested might want to know the outcome of my
question a couple of days ago about chain lengths for an RD04 AT.
It _is_ 124 links. I broke the old chain last night and without
adjusting the wheel, went to put the new chain on. At this point, I
discovered that the old chain had stretched by a whole 2 links!! My oval
adjusters on the rear axle were up around the 28 mark. With the new
chain, they're both down on the 4 mark now. The whole bike is a lot
quiter too now.
Perhaps something for the the FAQ? The correct chain spec for the RD04
(and probably the RD07) is a 525pitch chain with 124 links.
