New Chain Advice

Thanks for the heads up on Evans. Please forgive my ignorance but what does the 11-30 mean is it the number of teeth on the bottom ring, and the top ring?

11 is the number of teeth on the smallest sprocket on your cassette and 30 the number on the largest- gives the range of the cassette basically. 11-30 is a wide range - you can get 11-28 in XT as well but Evans had sold out of that one!

So in simpleton terms the 11-30 is essentially easier than the 11-28 going up a big hill?

It has an 11-28 on it at the moment.

You might be able to find a 12-32 cassette which would be even better for Peaks-style riding - I think we discussed this on the last ride. As the others have said - change the cogs and chain together where possible.

But at least you've discovered the fettlling before you really need your bike rule - if only we could keep to it!
