Did some fine servicing today, lubricating all the cables that sort of thing. Ended up cleaning drive chain and adjusting it. Did what the manual stipulate 50-65mm play. Once its tightened between said settings and for instance I sit on it the free play minimises to about 30mm. With two up its a guitar string. I don't want to give it to much play, not sure if it will throw the chain. Could the wise ones please explain to me the adjustment procedure
