Tips : Cara Membetulkan Rantai Tercabut

Pernah tak mengalami rantai tercabut semasa berkayuh? Kawan pernah, 2 kali semasa berkayuh kat offroad. Sekali tu berlaku dalam hujan lebat. Masa tu, terkial-kial jugak la untuk betulkan, sedangkan member-member yang kat depan semakin jauh. Bawak ke kedai? Jangan mengarut, kat tengah-tengah hutan mana ada kedai basikal. Kalau ada pun jumpa kedai kat tengah-tengah hutan macam tu, betul ke yang jaga kedai tu....manusia? Ishh...

Nak tak nak, kena la betulkan sendiri. kat sini kawan ada nak kongsikan video dari Videojug mengenai cara-cara membetulkan rantai basikal. Di dalam video ni, ditunjukkan cara membetulkan rantai Roadbike, tapi secara asasnya semua rantai adalah sama di antara Roadbike dan Mtb. Fixie, tak pasti pulak Kawan...

How To Put On A Bicycle Chain

Step 1: Hook back on
The easiest way to do this is to hook the chain onto the bottom sprocket and pedal backwards. Don't try and hook onto the top of the chain ring, always hook onto the bottom and pedal backwards
Step 2: Pedal
Now pedal forwards until it is in the right gear or keep changing gear until the chain pedals smoothly.
Step 3: If it's jammed
Sometimes the chain gets jammed between the smallest sprocket and the frame. In this case, it's a good idea to loosen the quick release and undo the wheel nut to ease out the chain. The quick release is simply opened by pulling the lever. Pull it open so you can loosen the wheel nut on the other side. Now adjust the chain like before. When closing the quick release, you should be able to close it completely. It should be tight, but not too hard to push. If it feels too tight, loosen the wheel nut by the derailleur. Likewise if it's too loose, then tighten the wheel nut.
Step 4: Final checks
Before you ride away, make sure you are in a comfortable gear. Pedal and change gear on both the rear and front derailleur.
