Today, we show you how to repair a broken bike chain without having to buy any specialized tools! This trick applies to bikes, scooters, etc and is quite easy to do at home!
► YOU WILL NEED
- 1 nut: to avoid side bending, the inside diameter of the nut should only be SLIGHTLY bigger than the diameter of the pins in the chain to repair. The depth of the nut should also be long enough for the pin to be pushed out.
- 1 nail: the nail used here is made from hardened steel (concrete nail). The diameter of the nail should be SMALLER than the diameter of the pin within the chain, so that the pin can be pushed out without any damages and that the nail does not get stuck.
- magnets: those have been recycled from an old Hard drive
- 1 vice: if you mention that this is specialized equipment, then get a life!
► DISCLAIMER
YES, using a chain breaker is the right tool for the job.
YES, it only costs a few dollars so is not a huge investment.
HOWEVER, I refuse to buy any tools that I will only use once every 10 years (if I have a viable alternative that is) for 2 reasons:
* Next time I need it (in 10 years’ time), I bet I can’t find it anymore
* Or even worse, I could even end up buying it twice forgetting I already had one… somewhere...
Now feel free to comment below and argue about how “using the right tools for the job is an absolute MUST” but let me ignore your verbiage. I completely assume my decision to simplify my life and avoid being surrounded by clutter, thanks!
