Anyone one the southeast side (preferably) have the room and the know-how to help me put on some sprockets and a chain? I've never done it and I don't have a rivet-tool or whatever that thing is called.

Gracias.

If you are willing to go even farther southeast on Sunday I can give you a hand

I'm switching out my front sprocket on Thursday night if you wanted to come by and do yours. I don't have a chain breaker though.

if you have a grinder a hammer and a chisel that's all you need

Hell, bolt cutters will do the job.

some things I'll redneck together...a chain isn't one of them...

Southern Canada is a hike, but I could help ya out if it comes down to it

I just did mine with Ezzzy1. They sell a cheap chain breaker at Harbor Freight for 9.99, it is what we used to rivet.

I can loan you guys a chain tool if that would help. I'm down in the metro area a lot for work. Just let me know.

Cool. I talked to RFranks303 and Bob (the Spider-Guy) this weekend and both offered to help, as well as Tim (can't remember his CSC name). I don't have a chain breaker or a rivet tool, either. I don't have a garage so working on my bike has always had to be done somewhere else.

I'd like to work it tonight or tomorrow if anyone has the time, if not, I may take Wicky up on his offer for Thursday.
