Install a Rear Wheel on a Street Bike

Video Transcript

Hello, my name is Mario. I'm here with Expert Village, and I'm going to show you how to change a chain and sprocket on a sport bike. Alright, now that we've guided the chain through, we're going to put the wheel back on. So, we'll just roll it into place. Make sure you have those spacers on that I was talking about earlier. Roll that into place, set the chain on. Alright, now that we've got the old wheel removed, we put on the new chain and new sprocket. We haven't yet secured the chain, we still have to put a master link in there. You need to decide what kind of link you want to use, a rivet master link, or a clip master link. They're both a good link. The rivet one is a lot more sturdy; you can handle stunts and wheelies and a lot of torque. The clip master link, you'd be using it at a track or something that you're not always going to be laying on the gas. We haven't secured the chain yet with the master link, because we need to set the brake. Remember when you do the brakes, don't squeeze the brake lever because your pads will squeeze together, and you'll have a hard time getting it over the disk. The master link that we're going to use today is a rivet link. I'll show you how to insert that, put on the other side with the spacers, leave the right amount of spacing; and get the equipment.
