Chain keeps breaking

[extremeodd]

Yeah I need to take care of that. I'd use jb weld but considering that I am King Turd Midas and everything I touch turns to s**t I'm going to go with the $15 kit where you bolt in an aluminum filler piece. I'll get it ordered soon.

The wheel will need to be replaced but I managed to get it fairly straight. It's not straight enough to reconnect the rear brakes but it'll work until next paycheck. That and my rear brakes weren't working or something because I've noticed almost no difference in stopping power. But between messing with the spokes and slapping on my spare #41 chain, I'm back up and running for the low, low cost of $0.

Ignore all the shavings, I shoved in a random metal dowel to replace my bucking bar and it's currently self clearancing on the clutch lever/f***ing up the inside of the clutch shaft. I'm replacing entire clutch shaft assembly when I get paid, been having too many issues with the internal spring getting stuck compressed.

Sorry for the thread hijack!

What is the clean image?

Oh shoot, should have linked it. It's an insert that will stop the chain from bunching up like mine did. All you do is drill 2 holes, bolt it in, and viola never experience a disastrous chain breakage from it getting a hair too much slack and binding up in the motor again!

Must be your location, it's showing $2.60 shipping for me making it 45c cheaper than amazon.

Once I logged in it changed to $2.60... That's better.
