Yup, every extra tooth is a link. And a jump from 40 to 50 is HUGE. I did an upgrade on a similar bike from 44 to 49, and it was a full 2 gear shift.Do you now require a longer chain with more links due to a larger chainring? I went from a 40t to a 46t and my bike mechanic had told me that a longer chain is now required? Has anyone else run into this problem?
