What are chain dimensions?
Chain dimensions are reference dimensions driven by the geometry. You cannot change their values or use the values to drive the model. When you create chain dimensions, your first selection defines the starting edge of the chain. Subsequent selections are measured from one selection to the next.
How are chains measured?
To measure, wrap a soft tape measure around your neck, keeping the tape measure parallel to the floor as you measure. Then, add 2 to 4 inches (5 to 10 cm) to your neck measurement to calculate your minimum recommended chain length.

All modern bicycle chains are made to the “one-half inch pitch” standard, meaning from rivet to rivet is nominally 0.5 inches. The sprocket teeth are cut for this same one-half inch standard to accept bicycle chains. However, this does not mean all makes and models of chains are interchangeable.
