I'm adding a vortex 15t front sprocket, keeping rear stock at 45t. So essentially adding 1 tooth to the setup

The chain I got is a DID 110 link, so since stock is 106, do I reduce it to 107 links or keep it stock 106 and just adjust rear tire to spec chain slack?

Plan on doing this tomorrow.

Also has if anyone has changed to a vortex 15t front, any shimming involved?Guess I'll find out tomorrow

thanks
