20 Bike chain

There are two types of bike chain:

• A wide bike chain (½ × 1 / 8") for hub gears and

• A narrow bike chain for derailleur gears. These are

available in dierent widths, depending on how

may sprockets are on the cassette. Only use chains

that are approved for precisely the number of

sprocket wheels on your bike.

Clean and lubricate your bike chain regularly.

To prevent premature wear of the bike chain when

using derailleur gears, select gears that keep the

chain skew as marginal as possible.

To check the wear in the bike chain, proceed as follows:

Take the section of the chain that rests on the ont

chainring between your thumb and forenger.

Pull the bike chain o the chainring. If the bike

chain can be lied by a signicant amount, it is

worn and must be replaced by a new one.

With hub gears, the chain tension must be adjusted

so that vertical play of one to two centimetres is

present in the unsupported chain span between the

chainring and sprocket wheel.

To take up the slack in the bike chain, proceed as follows:

Loosen the rear wheel nuts.

Pull the wheel back into the dropouts until only the

permissible amount of play is present in the bike

chain.

Tighten all screw connections carelly clockwise.

Tighten all screws to the prescribed torque as other-

wise screws could shear o and components could

come loose or detach altogether (see

Chapter 30

"Technical data").

20.1 Maintenance of bike chains

Bike chains are wear parts. Bike chains with hub gears

wear out aer roughly 3000km, and aer roughly

2000km with derailleur gears.

If the bike chain is worn, it can break and cause a

crash. If your bike chain is worn, have it replaced by

your specialist cycle shop before using the bike again.

Hi, The rear wheel of my kalkhoff Agattu sx42 bicycle got loose by the right bolt. I am having trouble tighting it because the bolt gets loose again a few minutes later from cycling. Could anyone give me any advice, please? Submitted on 28-11-2021 at 18:25
