using your chain adjusters, which will push/pull the rear axel. Undo the rear axel a little, then adjust the little bolts which push/pull the axel.
Hard to say how tight, you dont want it tight but not too loose, should be able to move teh chain up and down about 1cm easily in teh middle of front and rear sprockets.
Its important to take it for a little ride are u hav adjusted it, pop a few mono's then re-check the tension. Always remember to do up your axel bolt aswell ;-)
hahaha pop a few mono's LOL
So you guys are saying loosen the bolts, dont pull the wheel out at all, then adjust the little screw so it moves toward the oposite direction of the wheel nut. Can this be done without lifting the bike.
When you adjust the chain adjuster bolts, adjust them evenly so the chain and wheel stay straight....
If you adjust 1 side more than the other the chain wont feed onto the sprockets straight, and will cause heaps of wear...
