i use a Painted Marker and put a 'DOT' on the rear sprocket, at about the "12 o' clock" mark, once i find the tightest spot! now over time 6,000 + Miles atm ive ended up with 3-4 DOT spots that so far are always pretty close to the tightest part to use your tight-base!

When my nate had low miles, the first several times id do this, it would take forever to find the 'tightest spot', driving me ****ing CRAZY

So now i just line up and check the 3-4 12o'clock DOTs, using them at the starting point.. rather than spend 20mins rotating over n over finding that G-spot on the chain!
