    Replacing chain, need help

    I am regearing my bike and replacing the chain. I tried using a clip link to get the bike rideable so a shop could install the rivet link, but broke the clip.

    Does anyone have a chain tool that you can loan me or better yet if you want to help me out? I have to fly to Houston Wed night, but will be back Fri night and all weekend.

    TIA!!

    I have a couple chain tools ... one that will press the links back together so the chain doesn't fall off and also one that will break the links ... will either one of those work for you?

    this would probably get more attention if you throw a pic of Tanya up on the Duc and claim it's for her bike... it worked last time :P

    hope you get it fixed Dave... it sounds like christine will be able to hook you up

    Awesome!!!

    Yes, I need the one that mushrooms the new master link rivets. I have to be at the airport around 5pm, are you around today? If not, maybe I could get it Sat AM. I can't go without riding this weekend. It's been too long!!!!

    You can call me @ 720-244-1807 if you want to hook up today sometime.

    Thanks Christine!!!!
