Chain Maintenance




Bikes with final drive that uses chain need regular maintenance. For me, every 300KM, I will lube my bike’s chain. I use Silkolene sillicon gel chain spray. It seems “stick” on the chain better than Castrol chain lube. Sometimes, I also apply extra engine oil (after normal service) onto the sprocket gear and spin the rear wheel for while to ensure the oil/chain lube reach all the areas (O-ring, grips, etc.)

How should we apply the chain lube onto the chain ring? take a look at the photo below to have some idea.


We also need to check the chain tension. Don’t let it too loose OR too tight. Take a look at the picture below to check your bike’s chain tension.

Hopes this might helps.
