Not used to having to deal with a chain breaker at all.
RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGE.
Finally got the length right (i think), and now I have to find a/these tight links.
wait, dealing with a chain breaker, or without?
with.
In the past the shop made in the right length and it had a master link.
new chain does not.
next time save the old chain and use that to measure the new one
Alright I have to be doing something wrong, my chain is acting all wonky and I cant figure otu why. I checked for tight spots and am almost positive thats not the problem.
Any ideas?

chains don’t threat onto cogs?
Sounds like your chainline is way the fuck off and you are dumb.
Yeah 95% sure thats the problem. I just cannot win with this new bike.
I assume LBS/wheel builder did something wrong? Guess its going unridden for another week, Im going out of town tomorrow morning.
Chain line is fine : [
Ill take abunch of pictures once my back stops hurting.
never mind i missed a post
chain hits the spokes? is the cog on backwards?
Maybe it is? I didnt have a lockring tool until like a week ago sooooooooooo. Im ok with being a dumbass as long as this is solved. Let me see if it can thread it on the other way.
swefa
Yes. Cog’s on backwards. The tapered part should face the spokes, which will give you a few more mm between the two currently rubbing elements.
Cog was on backwards.
Time to go ride this shit in the dark, brb broz.
Cog on backwards = you are dumb.
Now, now… well, yeah, you’re right. I believe Surly cogs like that one come with pretty specific instructions for proper installation. Will we follow directions from now on, Brvn? Hmmm?
