    You should be able to go up two teeth in the rear without extending the chain.

    I went up three teeth on my race bike and didn't need a longer chain. Ask when you order it, they should be able to tell ya. If there's ANY doubt, get a coupla extra lengths. Can't be THAT much more, and you're better off with too many than not enough...

    UPDATE:
    I did follow the advice of buying it xtra long. I went with a 120 link.
    And NOT to my surprise it all fit with only 110links.
    Thanks for the tips
