tight chains - Chief Delphi

It shouldn’t be about whether or not you think it’s easy or not, it’s about whether or not you think the effect of the change would be a positive step for our country. - Bill Gold [more]

You have to remember that it's 1.5 times the full reduction. Assuming you're using a ToughBox Mini, you're looking at 256*12.75 = 3264:1 reduction. Include a 1.5:1 reduction on your chain and you're looking at 4896:1. That's a big difference.
