    is there any way to tell how much adjustment you have left in the back wheel. On a normal swing arm it's easy to tell but I've never had a single sided swing arm before? Thanks in advance.

    As its eccentric you would have to measure the distance from rear spindle to a fixed point that you have now and then slacken the chain and lift it off the rear sprocket, then you can move the wheel back to its furthest point and re measure and the difference between the two is how much you have left.
