getting a new cassette this week which is slightly different to the one its replacing - 11-32 instead of 11-34.
I'm sure i'll be fine in changing the cassette over and installing a new chain but hadn't contemplated the possible need to shorten the chain in view of less teeth on the rear cassette. I'm kind of thinking (hoping) as its only 2 teeth i shouldn't need to?
The cassette will be an XT 770 and the chain KMC 9X SL
I've searched park tools and the how to's here but couldnt find an answer
cheers

you should, but i would not worry."Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."
