Gear Talk / Re: One link in the chain
« on: March 01, 2015, 09:10:15 am »
Thanks to all the information and the advice was perfect. With the information obtained I did some home work and figured out that I have an 8 spirochete and 1/8 inch chain. I replaced the link with a new link and measured the chain using the 12 inch rule and found that I have little if any wear on the chain. I then took the bike for a spin and had no problems. I think I am OK but I think I will error on the side of safety and when we do our Utah Cliffs ride will bring an extra chain. :)

Gear Talk / One link in the chain
« on: February 27, 2015, 11:53:36 am »
Hi, I am new to this forum and if I am in the wrong topic let me know. I am going on a bike tour to do the Utah Cliffs route, about 300 miles, with some friends. My chain broke but was able to fix it with one link and it seems to work fine now. Should I get a new chain or go with the one linked replaced chain?  :-\
