Taking Chain apart

[KARacin]

I am trying to find a master link in the chain but I am not having success. How do I separate the chain to get it off the frame?

You need a chain rivet extractor.

Just grab one of these at your local bike shop...chain tool.

Here's a quick video demonstrating the proper use of the tool.

You're going to need to modify a normal chain tool- bust out the center tabs-- to get it to work on a skip tooth chain....

For skip tooth chain, look for a chain breaker that the go-kart people use. Bigger and stronger, as is the skip chain. (I borrowed one from a buddy, it does make a difference).

That's good info; I was gonna just modify a Park if I needed to, but better if I can get an off-the-shelf tool for it.

We have chain tools like this at work for industrial type chain. This might be the ticket for the skip tooth.

Thanks for the info.

Yeah, I'd like to have me one of those!
