Hands down the best bike maintenance videos on TH-cam. Keep 'em coming Saul.
no frills, plain and methodical clarity, thanks Saul
This is without a doubt the best video on the internet that shows how to change a chain. Thank you for the clear and calm manner in which you present everything. Fantastic work!
Thanks for this. Was never brave enough to replace my chain, but now I will give it a go !!
At the ripe old age of 54 (me, not my bike!), I just replaced a bike chain for the first time ever ... largely because this video of yours made it so simple. THANK YOU!
Glad it worked for you.
I always find your videos helpful because your explanations are very clear....Thanks!
Brill - three years later, and still spot on. Thanks.
GREAT VIDEO!!! We need more videos of people like you and not like most of the others that say they know and that they are pro's and don't even know how to install a chain and want to make a video and post it in you tube. Thanks for your videos that are a real help. PERFECT!!
The most explicit and detailed chain replacement. Thank you.
Great informative, step-by-step video. Thanks for your time to put this on YT
Thanks Saul, for a great, simple, step-by-step guide once again! I would just like to add that much frustration can be prevented by NOT completely removing the rivet from the outer plate, this makes the re-connection much easier.
Excellent video, well paced, and clearly presented. Thank you
Thank you, loved how calmly and detailed you have explaining it.
Better call Saul...if you gotta bike problem!
Always great and helpful videos for the numptys like me :-)
your videos are always the best! thanks, man!
Well done video. Good clear style of instruction with sufficient explanations and visuals.
I owe you a bunch of likes!!i! I promise to make it up to you! You are an AWESOME TEACHER!!!
I just did this successfully, thanks to this. Useful, especially the sizing comment - cause I had already chucked my old chain! cheers.
Very good "Show and Tell" instructions. Thank you!
Great Video!
Really Clear step by step instructions.
I'm off to get myself a chain tool and new chain.
The old chain has become all twisted and knotted!
Trying to fix It has really been testing my patience, can't wait to get the damn thing off!
If the chain stretches its more like you'd damage your testicles when it slips, oh and the best ever chain maintenance clip I've ever seen.
Your video is clear and helpful. Thanks!
Better call Saul! Great vid. Now I have to check out your chain length video.
Excellent tutorial mate,very easy to comprehend..thanks alot, now will try and do instead of being charged a fortune at bicycle store :(
Nice instructional video, but the trumpets are pretty annoying.
Exactly! They're too loud compared to the spoken part.
Happy I found this. Really helpful!!
Fantastic video. Did the chain change this afternoon as you described an all worked well. However, upon test riding I notice that I get chain slip when in the highest (smallest cog) gear. This did not occur with the old chain and does not occur when testing the gears on the stand. Could this be because the chain is too loose, or is it possible that the smallest cog is worn (ie. requiring a new cassette)? The bike is a 14 year old Trek 4500. The chain and cassette were never replaced. No crazy mileage on the bike. It's been well maintained and not riden too hard. Thanks in advance for any advice.
@pumpkinzer0 Wrap the new chain on biggest chain-ring on the front and the largest cog on the back. Make sure that the rear deraileur tensioning jockey wheels are almost, but not fully extended. Mark your new chain in this position and remove the excess links. This will ensure that you can shift into the big-big gear combo with minimal extra length on the small-small gear combo....Saul
Thank you this video was extremely helpfull
very helpful just what i needed to see
Thank u very much this helped me a lot !!!
Nice video mate!!
very informative! Thanks for your help!
Great video, grat instructor!
Awesome, thank you for this video! Very well and slowly explaind. Really good for complet newbies like me :)
a wonderful guide! thank you!
Nice video and well explained subject. I enjoyed watching this.
excellent video! thanks
excellent video, thanks for posting.
Thanks for the video, very good instruction...
Vraiment très bonne vidéo - excellentes explications.
Nice job. Thank you.
Thanks this is an AWESOME video.
Excellent, thank you.
Thank you very much, very helpful :)
Good video, but I noticed that the you set the connecting pin in the hole of the inner link on the front side in the direction the chain travels. Shimano recommends that the pin be inserted with the OUTER link on the front side of the chain travel. This enhances the strength offered by the chain.
great video!
Top,thank you for this instruction
Thank you very much indeed, very informative and helpful. I agree with the comment by Yo Soy.
very helpful thanks
great video, thank you!
thank you, very informative .
Awesome... Thanks a lot!
really helpful. cheers
Very helpfull, thank you!
Thank you mi amigo good job Wow well Done!!!
best one i have seen
Thank you!
Excellant. Many thanks.
My chain seems to ride up on top of the back cogs for a moment here or there and then they snap into place. This is awful because sometimes the pedals seem to have no resistance and when you push down while starting up from a complete stop you expect resistance. Without it I slammed my foot down on the pavement and almost fell. I brought it to two different bike shops and each told me I probably need to replace the rare cogs along with the chain. Finally I went to a third store and simply bought a chain. I am going to try just changing the chain and see how that goes. I had taken it off to clean it and since then it has acted strange. I have only used it for a couple of rides since then. I don't think I need new gears in the back.
Nice video...thanks.
Thank you,I love you.
Good video, thanks! :>
thanks a lot
mateeee
@velotique thank you !!
Well what do u do if u dont have the old chain to measure up?
thank you
how do u know that ur chain needs to be changed ?
Thanks for the video :)
I'm guessing why do we cut the new chain shorter 1 link than the old one when we put it on is the old one been stretched, right?
Yes.
thanks i had to put a new chain on my 10 speed it fell off the other day i forgot how the chain went its been a good 20 years last time i changed one .
This is a very good video, but I would make one correction. When installing the connecting pin, always do so from the inside, not the outside as shown. This way, when you snap off the part of the pin that you don't need, any burr that might exist will now be on the outside of the chain and won't rub against the casette or jockey wheels. That's one less squeek to try and find. Otherwise, nice job.
how come it looks so easy when this guy does it, but when I do it, it looks like I'm trying to do some sort of impossible mechanical greasy bike yoga in space >.
good video..thanks..new subscriber..
Thanks for subscribing.
I find putting the chain through the front derailleur easier than from the rear cassette. Saves a lot of hassle. To me anyway.
Thank you. Unfortunately being a non english speaker I have some trouble understanding how to measure a new chain without an old one or because I want to replace the cassette with a biggest cog and the same number of cogs.
good ty
big big or small small both extremes will do I suppose ?
If I shorten my chain by one link evertime I change it may be a problem after a few chains.
It's good video, though you could show how to use chain wear tool, and mentioned master link chains. I have also noticed that you have put the pin in the chain "backwards" regarding shimano's manual (inner/outer plate position). With all respect, cheers
BAK87 right, shimano instructions recommend to join having outer link front and inner link rear, i.e. opposite than in the video
I've replaced the chain on my bike 3 times now, and I always come back and watch this video as a refresher. Thanks for the tutorial. By the way, I usually get about 1,500 miles on average before my chain needs replacement. How many miles do other cyclists here get on their bicycle chains?
diamonddave247 Good Question. I usually replace my chain after 3-4000 km. close to your results. Remember replace your chain before it is worn out to save your gears from wearing out as well.
velotique Almost 5000 miles on this bike, and the rear cassette gears still look pretty good. Bike is shifting just as smooth as the first day I got it. Seems like I can go through 1 or 2 more chains before I'll need to replace that cassette. Thanks again for the maintenance tips and videos!
diamonddave247 Be careful. It is not possible to detect worn out gears until you replace your chain. Gears and chains wear at the same rate. When you eventually replace your chain it might not mesh with the worn gears. Remember chains are cheap and gears are expensive. It is best to replace your chain before it wears out your gears.
velotique Check for chain wear th-cam.com/video/gvjZhoQq1EU/w-d-xo.html
velotique I guess I wasn't quite clear in my last reply. I meant that I have replaced the chain every 1500 miles on my newest bike, and NOW have 5000 miles on the original cassette. The new chain and original cassette are both shifting and working smoothly.
I made the mistake of riding with a worn chain on my previous bike, and both the chain plus the cassette had to be replaced at about 4500 miles. It was expensive! Lesson learned. Now I have a chain link measuring device, and so I replace my chain as recommended (1500 miles on average). So far, so good.
Can you buy new chains separately??
+MsTommyknocker Try your local bike shop.
What if you don't have the old chain as a guide I threw mine away as couldn't be arsed to carry it for miles. Great vid btw
Wrap chain on big Chainring and largest rear cog. Extend rear derailleur jockey wheels to maximum extension and measure chain length to the next longest link.
neat
its worth it to get one of the toolless master links.
You should never reuse rivets on "Shimano" chains. The tight tolerance on these chains requires the use of the special pilot pin included with the chain. Reinserted rivets can fail.
what if you don't have your old chain say im building a bike up from scratch
Inna Leonoff Size the uncut chain by wrapping it on the big chain-ring on the front and the largest cog on the rear wheel. Make sure that the cage on the rear derailleur is almost, but not completely fully extended. Remove the excess links from the chain. This will allow you to use all the gear combinations without excessive chain length and slack.
you mean small chain ring and smallest cog
Inna Leonoff No, Large Large to determine the maximum chain length required to fit the biggest gear combinations. Try it.
velotique Hey velotique I need help. I'm having chain problems. I thread it through right and all but the only thing that's wrong is it keeps falling apart when I test spin it. I use a chain pin tool to try and keep it together but I can't seem to keep it together. What do I do?
Jonathan Chuck Buy a powerlink such as KMC's (not a powerlock). Powerlinks can be removed a few times during the life of the chain (better cleaning, swapping chain for indoor trainer etc.)
Couldn't watch complete video, horn is too annoying and too loud.
