How to Disassemble a Bicycle Chain

A complete Tangshan bicycle chain features moving parts. On a side view, the joints are held by spring clips, which can only be noticed with experience and close observation. Once found, use a screwdriver of the appropriate width or a special ring wrench to remove it from the chain. Then, the pin is pulled out, and the chain breaks. During installation, first insert the pin, then the spring clip.

Without special tools, use a flathead screwdriver, locate the link head, align it with the clamp at the joint, and push it flat to open it. Besides the joint, everything is riveted. If you want to shorten the chain, you need to break the chain.

If you're familiar with machines, it's a breeze. If not, it's advisable to seek someone from a bike repair shop on the street to handle it, as this can prevent damaging your hands. You don't need professional spring pliers to remove the springs; screwdrivers tend to stick to the springs, and the springs can easily get lost when installing them.
