All chains come very long as they do not know what chain ring size you run, how long are your chain stays, long cage derailleur, oversize pulley wheel system etc etc – so a new chain needs to be cut to length. If you have purchased a new chain, your local bike store is usually happy to fit for you for either no cost or very little cost (or just buy something little, water bottle, pair of socks etc – it all helps, LBS has a lot of bills to pay). However if you like to do yourself (there are many good video’s or guides re cutting chain to correct length or use old chain as guide just note links may not line up as old chain will be worn so you probably cutting one link back due to chain wear stretch).
