RE: [ST] 19T X 45T

["Masiak, Richard" <Richard_Masiak@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I don't understand.  What kind of clearance problems?  Two more links make the overall chain length longer, hence, pushing the rear wheel out.

Now if the chain were shorter, I can see clearance problems, because the wheel is now going in.  Thus running the risk of rubbing.

But, in all, I agree with you.  Less bend in the chain.  I put a 17T on my front, and I don't like it.  It seems to be pushing the limit on chain bend.  When I need to replace them again, I'm gonna go with 18T or 19T and increase the rear instead.

Anyone have experience with a 19T countershaft and 45T rear?  It sounds
good to me: about the same ratio as 18T X 43T but less bend in the chain.
I think 110 links should be OK but I'm not sure and don't know if there
are any clearance problems.
