If your bike ride until the chain is stretched and worn and need replacing. You can buy special tools to measure how extensive and most shops have them. Most drivers do not buy a special tool to see if the chain is stretched.
The easiest way to find out if you buy a new chain, without a special tool is to use a 12 "ruler. Keep straight chain, I like it on a flat surface, like putting my workbench and measureCenter or a rivet in the center of the rivet closer to 12 "away. The distance is over 12 1 / 8" pull the chain and get a new one. A new chain out of the box should be exactly 12 "Some drivers just keep an eye on their mileage, and change the chain every so many thousands of miles. Second rider and, sometimes, the stock pilot, often somewhere 2000-4000 km.
Sometimes you can hear scraping noises coming from the crank area. This noiseoften pointed out that the chain rubs the front derailleur. If the change is bent, replace it when I went just the other day. But sometimes you can fix with a small adjustment, moving the exchange enough for half of the cage, but not a transfer.
sometimes occur on some bikes far corner of the chain when you use a combination of tools at maximum speed in reverse gear with the smallest or vice versa. Some would say not only useCombinations. I have a Giant OCR 2 and led an expedition specialist, and many other makes and models of quality bicycles. I have this combination in both directions several times than I can count, and I never heard noises from the area of quality used on each wheel. I just pushed this noise to some bike shop in the department, I heard several times. I personally believe that if the bike is a bike quality is excellent and the parties are not set correctly, argued thatProblem.
Your chain must always be lubricated, but it is such a thing as too good. Too much oil or grease can build a sand and gravel and can lead to the chain and hang soon damage the chain, gears and the cartridge. The general rule is a drop of lube to each link, wipe the excess and allow the chain to 24 hours before departure, if possible at all dry. Thus, the lubricant to evaporate the liquid carrier and keep the unit much cleaner.
If you ride inrain, you'll find most of your bike, which will eliminate most of the grit and grim from your tube. You towel off and spray some lube in the rear derailleur and brake pivots in all places where water, as the ends of the cable sheath has accumulated in areas such as rust and causing problems in the future to hold. Again you wait 24 hours before departure and remove excess oil.
