I havn't loosened my rear wheel in several weeks or a month or two. The chain however, is noticeably more slack then previously.

Chain stretch or wear? Has the rear wheel crept forward?

Bike was purchased in August and still has the original chain cheapo chain. I'm going to slide the wheel back a bit but this is my first fixed-gear bike and my gut is that chains wear faster on FG bikes. What is the life span of a chain?
