Hi everyone. I just replaced my outer chainring with a bashguard, looks like I need to shorten the chain now. Is this correct? Its a kona Dawg. Thanks for any help.

Nice bike.
lol.

I'd imagine that if you no longer have the large chainring, you don't need the extra chain. Size it up for your two biggest gears.

I'd say no. Unless you change the size of your other two rings, just leave it.

Thanks guys.

You don't have to. I did to help prevent chain drop. If I had a chain guide, though, I s'pose it wouldn't matter.
