fietsbob,

I'm not trying to start an argument but I was answering the quote you made above. I looked no one else made a reference to "adding links"

I just checked my chain is 120 links and Shimano's Ultegra 6800 11 speed only comes in 116 links so I ended up "adding" 4 links to my chain to make my system work the way that I outlined.
