Hi Brian Good to get a reply from you. Only ask for 1 link to be taken out. Someti,es it looks like a chain would stand 2 links being taken out but from long experience I know this is a bit of a rtap.
The chain itself does not stretch but the rivet and the holes they sit in wear . if you get 10thousands of an inch wear on the rivet and 1o,thousandsth wear in the hole that makes up to 20 thou per rivet .On a 60 link chain in 3/6th pitch there are 120 rivets so if you multiply 12o by 20 thousands of an inch well that how much the chain has got longer. Chains dont stretch they just get wear Cheers Joe
