I do all the work on my bikes, but this is the first 11 speed, the others are 10. I didn't want to spring for the 11 speed chain tool so I figured surely REI can put the chain on. At any rate they are going to buy me a new pin and let me put my chain on with their tool, so I can live with that.
Problem looks to be solved, but I won't know until I get some miles on it. I replaced the RD housing which seemed to be binding a bit. Shifting much better now. Quote:

Lol I did this exact thing tonight. Spent 30 minutes going crazy trying to adjust the RD before realizing I'd installed the spare 10sp instead of the spare 11sp chain.
Clearly the solution is to upgrade all my bikes to 11sp so I don't have to buy different chains. |

Forget the special chain tool and join the chain with a KMC missing link. They work so well.

I'm just surprised the REI guy did't use a bench grinder to install the chain

Thanks for the great feedback, will be going with the snap link approach, but the main problem for those who may unearth this thread in the future was too much friction in RD housing, which was odd because it was right out of the box.
Anyway thanks for the assistance. Will be posting pics of the frame soon, its pretty gorgeous. |

I find White Lightning (the wax lube) to be absolutely amazing for cables in lined housing. I get 1.1mm gear cable running through normal (for 1.2mm) liners. It feels like I forget to put the cable in. I lent a friend a spare set of (new) Ergolevers and in the process of installation actually asked him if he forgot to put the cable through. He hadn't. |

Did you check to make sure the cassette spacers are in the right order?

I hope that adjustment solved the issue. |
