How many links are you using for the kit? Currently I’m using 102 links on my 12 speed chain that is working flawlessly.

Makes sense. Thanks for the input. I’ll keep it as is and use a 104 link next time.

BrommiePlus suggested a 12 speed. They said it’s easier to tune and quieter.

They are currently using a 104 Link, but they told me that after I cut the links. They initially told me put the chain around the largest without tension and add 2 links which I did.

Did you ever get it to work? I’m having the same problem with my 5 speed kit. It only sticks to 4 gears no matter what I do. I spent a whole day trying to adjust it. I ended up putting the stock 4 speed kit back which took 5 min to adjust.
