Chain length for 15/47 gearing?

Hi,

Im considering changing over to 15/47 gearing, what length chain (link count) would I need for this?

Thanks all.

Well... Stock 15/45 is 108 links. So 110 would be my guess. Better to buy/cut long than too short.

agreed! the standard D.I.D chains come in lengths of 120 links and you just cut off what you don't need.

110 is my foggy recollection of chain length. I should remember, since I went through a few, but it has been about two years since I sold the red and silver bike.
