I'm running a 34t front for around home, but I have a 28t for going to ridiculous length away races.
Do I need to shorten the chain suit? I'm going to use waxed chains, therefore I have multiple chains, so I do have options. I can shorten one and keep it and the 28t as race only, but that means the chain won't wear with the cassette and could cause problems. Or can I leave it and as long as it doesn't rub the derailleur cage everything is rosy? Or do I take a link out of all of them and aim for the middle compromise?
Ive read the shimano sizing instructions but how much difference does the length actually make?
