    New build: S40 2020

    the change from 10 to 11 speed resulted in a slightly wider cassette. For my ten speed free hubs eg on my powertap hubs I needed to put them on a lathe and remove material. When I go back to ten speed swapping wheel on bikes I have to first use a spacer for ten speed.

    S40 Chainring - for lower gearing

    I was once shocked by the sheer size of 10-11 speed 11-36 clusters. Lol what was I thinking. ?

    No, you can't make do with a short chain...

    Woh get off the electric fence. ;) doubt any permanent damage. Dropout would be compromised first I would think. Or maybe a link. if every link is still loose all good. Still changing okay all good. Now go climb a big hill close to home.
