make sure to check the chain length
ok well i was installing my new D.I.D. X ring gold chain on my bike. It was a bit long so matched it up to my old chain and cut it. Unfortunately, i had gotten a +2 sprocket in the rear... so i go to put the chain on the sprockets and i am excited cause its one of the last things i have to do before the big inaugral ride!
 Yep. I cut it too short. LoL. Just goes to show measure TWICE cut ONCE!!!

could you use two master links to make it long enough? I just had to get a 110 link chain for mine (stock is 10
 when I went +2...

technically a master link is only a half link that wont connect to it self. You have the inner link and an outer link the master link is only an outer link so you would have to pull the inner part out to connect the two masterlinks togeater (this is kinda hard to explain with out actually seeing the chain but hopfully it helped lol) . You could always buy a chain breaker that pushes the pin out and also pushes it back in. i think they are around 80$ though
