Getting there

You may want to get a chain adjuster for the right side of the rear axle.

I'm afraid I haven't played around there yet. Does something look obviously wonky?

@xschris Oh yeah, there isn't one there. Sorry, I'm super new. Had to do some googling to figure out what that was and where it went. I'm at work but my pics tell me the one on the other side is there. I'll add the right side one to my shopping list.
Thanks for all your advice, I really appreciate it! You've got an eagle eye. My rough bike must bend your brain a bit.

Love the diamond sheet!

@Liamthedevastator Hey, thanks. It's a great bang for the buck. I bought it all cheap as end cuts from a metal shop.
