why?

i can't imagine that's much stretch

i would estimate around .8cm or about .31 inches

now to figure out how many links I have with a 44/16 ratio?

http://eehouse.org/fixin/formfmu.php

according to that website with a 44x16 ratio and 41" chainstay ... I need roughly 85 links

so, it seems that i've stretch roughly .31 inches over 42.5 links or about 0.087 inches over 12 links

is that bad?
