How to Measure Go Kart Chain Size

Posted by BMI Karts
How to Determine Chain Size:
  • 1. To determine the pitch (chain size), measure the distance between any two consecutive rivets.
  • 2. The rivets are the small, round pegs or studs that hold the chain segments together.
  • 3. Measure from the center of one rivet to the center of the next rivet.
