Re: #25 Chain
Does anyone have any good info on how much #25 chain stretches over time? As chain stretch is actually wear of the roller axes, it will presumably plateau after a break-in period. That is, once it has stretched, what is the effective pitch length for the free runs between the sprockets? 0.2501"? 0.251"? 0.26"? 0.27?"
Has anyone ever tried "pre-stretching" chain as an alternative to dynamic tensioning? If so, how much tension and time is needed to get on that plateau?
