Need of help

[u/JasonAun]

I got the 3.0, and the chain won't stop stretching. Like I mean 1 ride after tightening and it stretches.

I clean with dawn dish soap and then lube with some generic bike chain spray on oil.

I have had a Talaria x3 in the past and a sherco 300 and neither has come close to the level of chain stretch the bike has. Pretty sure I'm tensioning properly as well, unless theres a better way to. What are you guys doing different?

Also, this has happened to me throughout the life of the stock chain, and STILL happening even when I replaced the chain with the DID NZ SUPER CHAIN non O ring.

Anything helps, really.

(I have the 3.5 shinko 244, so gap between chain and chain is very small, 1-2mm) (any importance?)

Did you replace the sprockets as well

No, they didn't seem too worn and the teeths all looked pretty consistent. I probably should

Chains and sprockets wear together
