Chain size

   Hi all,
Just fitted a 15 and 44 tooth Afam sprocket set with a DID 525 100 link chain (gen 2).

The chain looks too long.

Do you have to remove a link with this set up?

	Fitted 15/42 and 525 ZVM-X HD chain and I had to take about 5 1/2 links out if I remember correctly???? Can’t remember the number of chain links, , think it’s the norm to remove links imo, better than putting them in , oh I had to buy a chain link tool as well , when it’s done hope can keep the front wheel down .
