Default Quick Tech Question
Is the front sprocket reverse threaded? I just don't want to overtorque it by turning the wrong way.

Thanks in advance

I would have sworn it was reverse threaded when we were trying to get mine off the first time, but sure enough its just a PITA.

just remove the excess links after you wrap the chain around the sprockets with the wheel at the beginning of the adjustment/wear mark.
