Not bad only two in 10 years

Had a small problem getting the crank off Time for a new
crank remover. This time a Parks CCP-2. The one I used is a 9 year old
Lifu.

Chain that is broken, just two since 1996. Middle ring
did it in.Chain was toast. On went the replacement chain and saved the
crank till the morning since I had to find the tools & crank in the
spare parts box. Hooked teeth chainring will have to be replaced.

On a bike you ride regularly? Wait, second chain you've BROKEN, or
second chain in ten years PERIOD? I seem to go through at least one
chain per season. Granted, I'm not a real stickler for "eat off it"
cleanliness, but it's not crusted in filth or kept in cross-over
ratios....

The 2nd chain that broke. The 1st was on a bike in 96.
Oh I've had many bikes and more chains then I can remember since but
this is the only the 2nd one to break in the past 10 years. The
1 st was a bad pin. And this time it was the hooked teeth on the middle
ring.
