Man thanks for educating me on how to shorten a chain. When I was little my dad replaced my chain and didn't use a chain breaker. I couldn't remember how he did it. Now I know. You have a real smart little tool helper in training. You can tell you're a good dad. Thanks again.
Thanks for posting this video. You showed me how easy it was because I didn't have some of the tools and sunflower seeds but I substituted and I'm on the road again. Blessings to you and your children!
Thanks so much for the post!! My garage door cable recently broke so I bought a new one online and it came a couple links too long. Went to youtube, found this, and was up and running in a few minutes with no special tools. Saved me lots of time and possibly a service call. Thanks again!
Oh my goodness, how cut are these little kids! From one daddy's girl to a dad of little girls -- awesome job and great way to teach them about tools! Also, this is helpful as I try to put together my bike chain ❤
It works. You can also try pumpkin seeds, or any other seeds that you can spit with specific sound. Dependimg on the type of seed used, the chain will have different strength. Try 2-3 types of seed and decide which is the best for you chain type
☺️Dad's teaching his Kids ☺️ Train a child in the way they should go so when they get older they should not depart from you thy Word. You got some blessed kids Man Hey I give God the Gory are you teaching me how to do this. Appreciate it Bro !!!!!!!!!
Cool video thanks for helping I really appreciate it I have a motorized bicycle and it has a 415 chain I've got almost a thousand bucks in it so I'm thankful I dont have to wait for the chain tensioner you sure made it looks easy
This a very helpful I appreciate this type of video's was struggling with my daughters bike who's chain fell of quite often.no problem solve .thank you very much
he means the side without the gap on the masterlink should be facing the opposite direction from the wheel rotation. If the Wheel goes forwards, the masterlink clip faces the other way :)
@@chud327 you welcome... I still have my old '92 diamondback bike much love to you and your family all the way from the south side of big chicago city and be safe it's so crazy now I can't ride my bike not much longer like before!!!
Dune Buggy Part 12 is in the making, I am only minutes away from going out and putting the windshield in. I should get my little helper to help out, I know she is in the video this time blowing the horn... Thanks for watching.
Could do it as a kid, but just tried it on my sons and I can't do it. 😂. Need the correct tools that I don't have anymore. Il try again at weekend when I find the correct equipment. Noway am I paying someone to do this.
Ok how do you put the pin back in? Cause i usually push the pin out just to where it's in one link, that way you can push the pin back in, no master link needed...lol idk if everyone does this but i do
I don't know, they were in the toolbox my cousin left to me. I would try Sears, Snap-On, Matco, auto parts store, big box store, etc. Good luck and thanks for watching.
This is NOT a good solution for replacing a bike chain. It worked for me, but if you test the next link or two up the chain from where it has been broken, it will not fall under the weight of gravity anymore. That is, if you hold the chain up horizontally the first link still on the chain after breaking will not fall under the weight of gravity anymore as the others do. This link will cause a little bit more friction and will cause more resistance when you ride making it a bit more difficult. If you have a bike that is not that good it should not matter too much, but if you have an ok bike and want to go quick it will slow you down just that very small amount.
Didn't work for me. The rivets were too tight to be knocked out this way because it wasn't possible to hold the chain steady enough, but they came right apart with a $15 chain break tool.
did this to try and switch chains from one bike to another only to find out that the chain just doesn't fit at all on the bike lol. but otherwise this method works

You're very welcome... ☺
Thank you, very useful as doing a bike project with my son and there isn't a master link on it so this helped a lot.
Glad it helped! Keep working with the son and thanks for watching.

I used to be almost addicted to sunflower seeds, sorry if that full mouth talk bother you. I don't do that anymore. thanks for watching.
Nicely done! Do make sure the closed end of the master link goes points in the direction of travel or the chain could fall off again in the future.
Good idea, thanks for watching.
You're a good father :-)Thanks for the helpful video!
Double thanks to you and thanks for watching!
There are 51 thumbs down at this time. I guess there are that many bike shop owners who are watching this video.
You make great point, thanks for watching. I need to make another, my go-cart chain is now too long.
That was spot-on!
Probably him eating the loudest sunflower seeds directly into the camera.
How is it even remotely possible to give this video a thumbs down? Great video in all aspects.
They couldn't remove the chain from the bike

Wow, the best, I really appreciate that! Thanks for the reply!

I tried this and it worked. You can also use a screwdriver and then a small iron nail :)
Thanks and I am glad it worked for you!
How?
Thanks doing up bikes and selling them and making them new like old bmx and this helps a lot because it has no master link
So glad to help out and thanks for watching.
Thank you so much for this i was having so much trouble because my chain doesnt have a masterlink
So glad to help out and thanks for watching.
Hi Bud you put the master link locking pin on backwards the closed side should run in the same direction as the wheel does
+Oiram Nojertsac What do you mean by the closed side? Thanks for the comment.
he means the side without the gap on the masterlink should be facing the opposite direction from the wheel rotation. If the Wheel goes forwards, the masterlink clip faces the other way :)
Awesome family ! Thx. Magnet is a great thing to have yet hard to find! Worth its weight in gold!!
Thanks so much and yes I love that magnet. Thanks for watching.

Wrong - the link clip was fitted backwards, the open end should be on the trailing edge regarding chain travel.
I thought it was... thanks so much for watching.

Any time!
Remember my dad teaching me this. Has saved my ass many times
that is a cool story and thanks so much for watching.
if you dont have a master link could you take the pin out of the other link and then join the two together or is a master link needed?
You can do it with out a master link, but it is no where near as easy. Thanks for watching.
chud327 oh ok thanks

Thank you
You're welcome and thanks for watching.
I must have the strongest chain in the universe. I've been pounding for 1hr and it won't budge.
I wonder if maybe your punch is too big. I wish you could swing by and let me take a swing at it. Thanks for watching and good luck.
Maciej - you and me both
Will this damage the chain? I want to try it on my Pit bike chain, It's a motorcycle chain not a bicycle chain and I don't want to damage it
I don't know for sure, I would assume that it would be the same as a bike chain. Let me know how it goes and thanks for watching.
yeah np, couldnt figure it out so a shop will do it for free, would hav grinded it but its scawy lol
Sweet and thanks for the reply!
where do you buy the puncher and smaller one?
I don't know, they were in the toolbox my cousin left to me. I would try Sears, Snap-On, Matco, auto parts store, big box store, etc. Good luck and thanks for watching.
gonna try it on my bmx thx and great vid
It should work, let me know and thanks for watching.
Where can I buy the two tools you used to put pressure on the chain and then release the bolt?
Shay Johnson I would say hardware store and get a skinny punch or nail set. Good luck and thanks for watching.
@@chud327 Thank you sir and no problem.
