13/45 - Chain Length

fjmartin · 10-09-2016, 03:35 AM

For those that have gone to the 13T/45T combo, can you tell me if the stock chain worked as far as length?

Thank you!

i know there is a thread someplace that says it will fit but took a little extra time might have to put sprocket and chain on at the same time don't know search you will find it but i'm sure it will fit go to sticky mods. and maintenance post num. 27 of countershaft remove and replace

I did the swap out and had no issues what so ever. When I adjusted the chain for the new setup it took very little to adjust.

I am running a 13T/46T sprocket configuration, and the stock, 110-link chain barely fit, even though it was slightly worn. If installing a new drive chain, I would order a 112-link chain for the 13T/46T sprocket combination, but a 13T/45T sprocket combination should always work with the stock chain length.

I'm running the 13/45 sprockets with 112 link chain.

The 112 link chain is a great chain length for the RX3. It's confirmed compatible with these configurations and maybe others:

13T / 44T
13T / 45T
13T / 46T
14T / 44T
14T / 45T

That's great to know. It will be a bit before I have a 112 on hand as I plan on running the stock chain till it dies and I have a 110 link that I had gotten when I ordered the bike from CSC. Once that one is on, my spare will be a 112. Thanks!
