Do you take the chain off to clean?
For the first time in my life I have just broken the chain, taken it off the bike, cleaned it, lubed it and put it back on with one of those tool free links (a Connex 8spd one). I did all this on my husbands bike of course just in case I stuffed something up:rolleyes:
I just wanted to say it was easy and made chain cleaning soooo much easier, and it will be even easier in the future with the Connex now on there.
I've ordered a SRAM Quicklink for my bike. Also be interesting if there's any difference between the two brands.
Since buying my bike this was the second simple little thing I have learned, the first was how easy it was to take a bolt on seat collar off & replace it with a qr one.
Sometimes learning those simple little things just seems to feel so rewarding. Funny isn't it.
