Chain Adjustment Lock Nut
« on: 21 March 2016, 08:06:08 am »
Hi,


I'm currently adjusting my chain and the haynes suggests I should have a locknut on the adjusters, I don't have these though, just a single nut on each side.


Is the haynes wrong? Or should I be fitting an additional lock nut?


cheers
mike

You should have 2 nuts on either side.
