@TheDaylight9 your chain should be tight enough that it doesnt give to forward or backward pressure, but not tight enough to slow the rotation of the wheel when just spinning the pedals.

@7875736 how tight should my chain feel/be?

@gronki1 It's actually good to have a 17 tooth cog on your rear wheel. That means there will be 17 possible places that the tire can contact the ground while skidding. The more possible points of contact, the longer your tire will last.
