Chain Tools

Bicycle Parts Warehouse stocks a large range of bike chain tools to help you repair or replace your bicycle chain.

Why Do I Need a Bike Chain Tool?

If you want to install, repair, replace or remove bike chains, you will need a chain tool.

Chains are one of the most common parts of a bike that are subject to wear and tear. And you will find replacing one isn’t difficult with the right tools. A chain link tool allows you to split old chains, shorten new ones and join those that use a pin rather than a quick-link. Stocking bicycle parts and accessories from industry-leading brands, shop with us online today and get a high quality chain link removal tool or bike chain cleaning tool delivered direct to your door.

Things to Consider When Purchasing a Bike Chain Link Tool

Chain Compatibility – Not every bike chain removal tool will work with every chain. The number of sprockets on your cassette often determines which chain removal tool is most suitable. Some tools self-adjust to accommodate multiple chain widths, however, many chain tools have a fixed design, providing limited versatility.

Larger, Size Equals Better Leverage – Generally, a larger tire chain repair tool means greater leverage and superior comfort in the hand. With many modern chains featuring tightly-set pins, increased leverage can help to make life easier.

Pin design – A key component of a bike chain tool is the tool’s pin. A common point of failure, it’s important to be able to replace it if required. Chain tools with irreplaceable pins will have to be discarded if this small part ever breaks.
