How to Maintain O-Ring Chains?
1 Answers
O-ring chain maintenance methods are as follows: 1. Cleaning and Lubrication: When maintaining the chain, the main steps are cleaning and lubrication. Whether to lubricate a motorcycle chain depends on whether the chain is too dry or making abnormal noises. If the motorcycle chain is neither dry nor making any noise, then lubrication is unnecessary, but regular cleaning is still required. 2. Precautions: Chains that are not cleaned and maintained for a long time may accumulate mud, dirt, and small stones, leading to abnormal noises. More importantly, it affects the chain's lubrication, accelerating the wear of the front and rear sprockets, which can eventually cause issues like chain derailment.
