Quick chain question
Discussion
I've just been checking my bike over before heading off to the TT on Friday, and while cleaning and luring the chain I've noticed that there is a few mill of side to side movement on the chain as it runs over the rear sprocket.
So, if I am stood behind the bike, I can move the chain noticeably from left to right by a few MM as it is on the rear sprocket.
I suspect this is fine, but I've never noticed it before on any of my bikes.
Chain is a DID X ring, Sprocket is a Renthal, all standard size and pitch.
Sound normal?

Hi everyone.
I'm sure it's fine, just one of those things that the more I looked at, the more I started to question.
it's all stars and size and pitch, so 530, and the rear sprocket is marked 530, it's all aligned and tensioned correctly.
The chain moves on the sprocket from side to side when looking from the rear of the bike maybe 1.5-20mm, as I say I'm happy that this is correct.
