Hi, Anybody ever thought of rotating all the pins in a chain 180 degrees to get some more life out of a chain ?
Cheers,
I don't think that doing something like this would significantly increase the life of a chain. Once it gets to the point where it might be useful, other parts of the chain would also be wearing away. Parts of mechanical things wear together, so the chain could wear faster once you do this.
Secondly you would in effect be taking the chain completely apart, and putting it back together. This could increase the chances of future chain failure, and I doubt you would put it back together as even as a new chain, also increasing wear.
