You've got it right the way you described. The funny thing with that chain is that there are 3 wrong was and one right way to install it. One of my riding buddies once managed to install his CX-S in the ultra-high performance upside-down and inside-out configuration. The wrong-est of the three wrong ways. Of course he also had the inner 'ring on backwards and his seat was loose enough to slip all over the place. That's a pretty good run, considering all he had done the night before was clean the drivetrain and install a new seat. Batting 1000, I suppose. Tom Dalton Bethlehem, PA GPVB1@cs.com wrote: All:

OK, Regina Catena-philes, could someone remind me which way to install the non-symmetrical Regina narrow chains? I'm guessing that the black "B"-shaped link goes on the inboard side with the flat edge away from the sprocket teeth, but I can't recall for sure if that 's correct or not.... Also, the CX-S has both inners asymmetrical, whereas the "America" or "Anniversario" has only one side's inner link that's that way.
