So my chain snapped on my way home from work today and I had to walk the bike 2 miles in the miami heat and humidity. Can anyone point me in the direction of a good strong chain?
Also, when the chain is gone should I notice problems with shifting, you know, aside from not actually being able to get in motion. It should go through all the gears correct? I noticed that at the bottom of the trans case a bolt is snapped and when I pull my clutch lever the case visibly moves as if something is pushing out on the case itself. The gear pedal is somewhat loose and I noticed that I had to pull it out about 1/4" for it to grab on the gears (barrell...whatever it's called.) What symptoms am I looking at? I hope my description was good enough, if there are any questions to help you understand what i am trying to describe please ask as it may help me to figure out any problems through my answers (and yours if you have any for me.) Thanks!
