Chain Length

rayman1 · 2018-06-02 23:05:43

Hi, I run 10 speed Ultegra and since new I have always had 11-28 cassettes. When I fit a new chain I simply measure the new length against the old chain. My next cassette will be a 12-30. Will the same chain length work with the 30 sprocket? Thanks in advance.

It might do. Best check is to wrap the chain around the biggest rings front and back, without putting the chain through the derailleur and adding 2 full links to that length.
