Still though if accurate then Campagnolo's way of measuring chain wear/stretch may be faulty (pic below) Which is what I use with my dial caliper & my old chain measures 5.19" or 131.82mm? But as to your bet...I did run the new chain today on my same cogset, no skips at all & perfect function. I will say it was a wee bit quieter & perhaps shifted a hair better than the old chain...mostly noticed on small to big ring front changes. Lastly I had my mileage on the last chain wrong. I forgot I spent two months out of country on a different bike so subtracting those miles this Campy Chain had 9,552 miles on it Last edited by flying; 06-02-2020 at 03:29 PM. |

Thanks for the advice everyone - went with a 105 level cassette ($45) and chain ($25) from REI along with a super casual REI brand jersey for $30 (https://www.rei.com/product/147792/r...ng-jersey-mens)

Hmmmmm...methinks I should be checking tolerances more frequently, based on the discussions here...

buy a chain checker, great tool and wont break the bank.with the first mis step in shifting, i get home check chain, if its lutside the tolerance, i trash and replace. the cleaner your chain the better life to everything. +1 on the frequent wipe off and lube. once a month i totally degrease. i like pedros cleaning products for drivetrain. eco friendly and dont suck.

No, if you look closely, it is measuring roller wear as the distance measured is from one roller to another, not pin to pin..

But, If it is just roller wear I wonder why they don't just instruct to measure a few random rollers In any case they have been around long enough & probably have their reasons Last edited by flying; 06-06-2020 at 11:40 AM. |
