Title: Chain length? Post by Seavo_Sam on Aug 28th, 2013, 1:03pm Now I need to start preparing for future maintenance. How long and how many chains will it take for my Strada when time comes for a new chain? Thanks, Sam |
Title: Re: Chain length? Post by dd5339 on Aug 28th, 2013, 1:27pm If you're Strada is anything like my Giro, you will need two and change, (order three). So just how many chains does you're Seavo take? Semper Fi |
Title: Re: Chain length? Post by jayg on Aug 28th, 2013, 1:55pm It's cheaper to just order a single length chain from Bacchetta. Only need to use one quick link connector (supplied w/chain). See: http://shop.bacchettabikes.com/parts/drive-train/sram-pc-971-chain-w-master-link.html |
Title: Re: Chain length? Post by Seavo_Sam on Aug 28th, 2013, 2:05pm I need to find out for the Seavo too. It will need a new chain also in about 400-500 miles. I am more confident as to the mileage on the Seavo chain than the Strada chain. Thanks Jay, I didn't realize that was a possiblity. I need go out there and see what all they have that to offer. |

Title: Re: Chain length? Post by FlyingLaZBoy on Aug 30th, 2013, 2:32pm the RANS website has chain length charts for all their bikes. Seavo Front = 110", Seavo Rear = 120" Or, just call them and ask for Eddie, and tell him what you need. |
