^ yeah I've gone through them already. Interesting, bicycletutor seems to indicate that the chain link I posted is for fixie bikes. Anyhow I manage to ride home safely. It shifted a bit weird. Was rubbing the FR cage. Adjusted cable tension via the barrel knobby. Works fine now. Also checked for chain length. Seems to be find. It has the S-bend in all gears that was depicted at Parktool's site. Think I am good to go for tomorrow.
