is the front ring a "Narrow-wide" design? do you understand how to clock the chain onto it?

and, for the record... you can't "remove one link from the chain" unless it's the quicklink, which will be needed to re-assemble the chain.....

i'm still trying to wrap my head around a 70 yr. old buying a wild eyed $4500 CF MTB with mondo travel and big brakes.... for leisurely exercise rides...

but hey... if you're happy...
