Chain Link looped within another
#1
One of my chainlink did a loop to overlap another link in 2 spots, it happened after i hit a big oil puddle, knocking off my gear sets and knocking my chain off, while appliny the gear's back on, i looped it somehow, and have no clue how

Just push it around with your fingers - wear nitrile gloves to keep you hands clean, gently.

For less than $20- you can get a new chain; so keep that in mind.

I'd like to see more pictures of your bike; please post some in: http://forums.bikeride.com/forum-36.html I am working on a SR Sierra Sport, and am curious about other SR bikes as there is very little information about them on the 'net.

Thank you
Nigel
