Triace A310 Chain Replacement

Begin loosening the tire by turning the quick release handle.

Gripping the rear derailleur, pull the arm back, away from the front of the bike.

Notice how the derailleur becomes almost vertical in the second picture when compared to the first.

There should be enough slack, in the chain, at this point to remove the tire from the bike.

Remove the tire from the bike.

Locate the master link along the chain.

With pliers squeeze the two pins together so that the chain comes apart.

With a plier press the two pins together and remove the clip.

Once the clip is removed the chain should easily come apart.

Once the chain is separated, remove it from the bike by pulling one end.

With the new chain, place it on the current gear that your bike is in.

Thread one end of the chain through the derailleur from top to bottom so it is in the shape of a 'S'.

Next place the chain on the back gears, making sure that it is threaded through the guide.

To reassemble the chain bring both ends of the chain together so that the pins on each one lineup.

Grip the chain on both sides of the master link and pull.

If your chain does have a master link clip replace the link around the two pins.

Use a plier to slide the clip back into place.
