Chain Tool

Wanting to see if anyone in the Columbus area has a chain tool for a rivet. I'm wanting to really finish up the bike this week if possible and I'm down to sprockets and the chain.

I contacted Chris Calv but hes tied up with work till next week, so my alternative is to wait another week before getting this done. :(

Willing to bring the bike to you and pay for use of the tool!

i have one. live downtown. will be home after 4:30.

i also got the grinder to cut off the old chain if you want :)

Grinder FTW. To hell with pushing pins.

I have a chain tool in Groveport, but won't be home till 6:00-6:30.

You should never try to push the pin out with the tool. All youre going to do it break tips. You pretty much have to use a grinder!

yessss... at least grind the heads off the two pins, then you can push them out.

Anything less will most likely break the tool.

I usually just grind it half way through and use a flat head to pry off the plate. werd to ya motha

I thought about that, but I didn't think the Yota would be that brutal...

I think I just have too much fun with the grinding part...

yea def. gotta grind the heads off to push out the pins or you will break your tool. i learned that the hard way.

honestly though, i dont even mess with pressing out pins any more. always just put on the cut off wheel and cut straight through the chain. quick and easy. also it makes a bunch of cool sparks.
