Chain too tight - any legal recourse?

[DazBrahz]

Hi guys,

I hope the collective knowledge can help out here.

My bike was serviced yesterday by one of the local "big" dealers.  On my way back home I heard this "singing" noise; which bothered me, but I couldn't figure out what it is.  When I stopped at a traffic light, I felt the chain and voila:  I could use my chain as a guitar string... :angryfire:

I stopped at the closest bike shop off Buitengracht and loosened the chain there.  Old Tim almost cracked himself when I told him I just had the bike serviced.

I check the sprockets for bent teeth, but they looked OK and there is no oil leaking out at the seal on the front sprocket (as far a the naked eye can see past the sprocket gaurd).

Long story short:  The chain was obviously set without any load on the seat by the dealer mechanic.  My bike is not under warrantee any more.

Do you think I have any legal recourse should something related break in the near future?
