Single Speed / Fixie - Chain tension / uneven tension I recently changed my chain and noticed it has uneven tension (probably my chain ring being out of rounds). I followed Parktool's video and set the tightest spot to have about 0.25 inch movement up and down. 

I wanted to confirm that I did everything correctly, it’s been sort of hard for me to judge if the tension is correct. I’m also not sure if the noise that the chain makes is normal, or if it’s too tight. I have attached videos for the tension and noise.

I would appreciate it if someone could confirm if everything seems good? Thanks!

I'm going to disagree with Mike and say that chain is far too tight. I race singlespeed MTB and have a fair amount of experience setting chain tension. In the fixie/singlespeed world; a loose chain is a fast chain, but not TOO loose. There is a "Goldilocks" tension to chains where the chain can freely move up/down along the drive line but not enough to jump teeth on the cog or chain ring. 

All chains will "stretch" over time and require periodic re-tensioning but a chain that is set too tight will exacerbate wear on cog, chain ring, and the links. 

FWIW, I run oval chain rings on my MTB and those are even more finicky to set up. Tension is set on those when the oval portion is at its widest position on the y-axis, then goes slack through its rotation, but never slack enough to de-chain or skip teeth. 

Just an example of my chain after a race earlier this year where you can see how slack it was but still connecting and putting power to the tire.
