How to Install Chain on Mountain Bike: A Step-by-Step Guide for Beginners
To install a chain on a mountain bike, first ensure that the chain is the correct length for your bike. Adjust the derailleur to its lowest position and thread the chain through the derailleur and cassette. Pull the chain tight and connect the chain ends with a quick-link or chain pin. Use a chain tool to remove any extra links if needed. Once the chain is installed, test that it shifts smoothly and adjust the derailleur as necessary.
