The chain should be tight enough that it only allows you to move it up and down about half an inch. If there is no slack in the chain then it is too tight. And if there is too much slack then you need to tighten that chain.
How do you adjust the tension on a derailleur chain?
Locate the derailleur screw that has the letter “B” printed below it. Insert your screwdriver into the B-tension screw. Rotate the derailleur screw counterclockwise to decrease the tension of the chain. Turn the B-tension screw clockwise to tighten the chain around the teeth of the rear sprocket.

When to tighten the tension on a chainsaw?
Tighten your chainsaw blade when the chain no longer sits flush on the bar. The bar is the long “knife” of the chainsaw — the part you use to guide the blade and actually cut. The chain should wrap snugly around the whole bar, not be hanging off the bottom side. If it is hanging, you’ll need to adjust the tension.
How is the tension of the chain dealt with?
The tensioning of the chain is dealt with as part of rear wheel removal and reassembly, starting with the wheel off the ground. It doesn’t seem to give a recommendation on the range of movement either — or I’m not looking in the right place.
Where do I check the tension on my Chain?
The amount of slack varies from bike to bike so check your manual. The tension is usually measured midway between the front and rear sprockets at the bottom side of the chain. The up and down movement of the chain at this point should be measured and checked against the spec in the manual.
What should the tension be on a bike?
Working on the reasonable assumption that the chain will be adjusted by one workman operating unaided I’ve always understood the tension recommended figure to be with the bike on the centre stand and under its own weight – not with another person on the seat. Done this for over 50 yrs without any snags. Good enough for me!
