Frequently Asked Questions
The chain comes pre-assembled but requires tension and alignment adjustment during installation. Check your model's service manual for specs.
No, this is forward gearing only. Confirm sprocket tooth count matches your setup (14F/42R standard).
X-Ring provides better sealing, less friction, and longer life than standard O-Ring chains.
Not recommended. Mismatched sprockets cause premature wear. Replace as a kit.
