Hi,
I have been struggling to set up gear change on my recently acquired (2nd hand) Dawes Karakum, (Shimano Deore 9 speed). The chain was "kinked", so I purchased and fitted a new chain. I have seen all the DIY gear set up videos and I am happy that I have done everything to the letter..however I can't seem to get the correct balance between the cable tension and the derailliur tension screw.....would shortening the chain help?..I did not take any links out when I fitted the new chain, (purchased a "deore" 9 speed chain from reputable supplier).
Any feedback gratefully accepted...
thanks
