  • I hope you don't mind a little constructive criticism :)

    The description of this video is misleading. Repairing a chain on a bike stand is vastly different than being on the side of the trail or road. When my chains break, I generally have to do some clean up with a chain tool to remove the busted link, a bit of elaboration on that process would help out. It would also be great if you could specify the fact that the how-to uses a master link, I was surprised by that when I got to the content.

  • shit video!

  • so what if you dont have a master link and your in the middle of nowere?

  • @ElegantlyWasted04 shit. $9.40 for a new chain at the local department store. you're getting reamed if you're spending that kind of money on a bike chain.

  • @quarvis well bike parts are expensive especially paying a bike shop to do it! Chains dont come cheap min £30 & when ppl withhold important information like keep the pin in the chain or you have to buy a new one so this video really pee'd me off

  • @silvernations GFYS Yank doche

  • Well, sure, this is all easy if you already have a quick detach link in your chain. Why would such a thing require a video? It's about as difficult as putting a belt on a pair of pants.

  • @ManTheBush me too but didnt fall on my face lol.

  • My chain broke when I was peddling uphill and I fell on my face. Ouch!

  • @ElegantlyWasted04 Damn man calm the fuck down!!!!

  • you should remove this video! how to install a master link would be an appropriate title. a broken chain has broken parts and you will need a chain break tool and would be a completely different video and helpful, unlike this vid which thanks for wasting everyones time :)

  • @quarvis We sure do! check out the AirZound bike horn you dont want to be walking in front of me as I let 115dbs rip at cars, taxi cabs, buses, motorcyclists! Very funny making a motorcyclist jump but shouldn't of been in my lane!

    Ppl aint too pleased to be frightened by a female cyclist :D

    btw this video is still shit & a waste of virtual space this is much much bettersee video Removal and Installation of Bike Chains
