	Bicycle chain - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A bicycle chain is a chain that transfers power from the pedals to the drive-wheel of a bicycle thus propelling it.
		The chain in use on modern bicycles is a roller chain with a 1/2" pitch.
		Before the safety bicycle, bicycles did not have chains and the pedals were attached directly to the drive-wheel, thus limiting top speed by the diameter of the wheel and resulting in very dangerous designs with front wheels as large as possible.

	Bicycle chain (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		A bicycle chain is a chain whose function is to transfer kinetic energy from the pedals to the drive- wheel of a bicycle (the back wheel) thus enabling the to move.
		The chain in use on all bicycles is a roller chain with a 1/2" pitch and either 1/8" or 3/32" width the latter being on derailleur -equipped road racing and touring bicycles.
		Adding the chain provided for gearing and enabled manufacturers to reduce the of the driving wheel and cyclists to the amount of resistance to their pedaling to the difficulty of the terrain.

	Chain Maintenance
		Chain durability is affected by riding style, gear choice, whether the bicycle is ridden in rain or snow, type of soil in the local terrain, type of lubricant, lubrication techniques, and the sizes and condition of the bicycle's sprockets.
		The rivets that hold the chain together run through the middle of the bushings, and the rollers roll around the outside of the bushings, so both the inside and the outside surfaces of the bushings are subject to wear.
		The major cause of chain "stretch" is wearing away of the metal where the rivet rotates inside of the bushing (or the "bushing" part of the inside plate) as the chain links flex and straighten as the chain goes onto and off of the sprockets.

	Alameda Bicycle - Chain Replacement And Repair
		Though most chains today use the special pins or link, this is still a good thing to understand, because you can use this approach to get home should you break a chain and not have a replacement pin or link for the repair (you should repair the chain correctly when you get home).
		Modern chains are very narrow, and even a small amount of misalignment in the pin where it sits in the outer plate could cause the chain to break under load.
		Now place the chain tool on the chain so that the link you're working on is seated completely and resting against the back (strongest) shelf of the tool with the tool's pin aligned to press directly on the special replacement pin when you turn the tool's handle (photo, right).

	Simpson Chain - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Simpson Chain or Simpson Lever Chain was an English-made bicycle chain invented by William Spears Simpson in 1895.
		Simpson made, widely discredited, claims that the levers of this chain provided a mechanical advantage that could amplify the energy produced by the cyclist.
		The Simpson Chain is portrayed in a famous work of the French art nouveau artist Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec.

		A bicycle chain is a chain whose function is to transfer kinetic energy from the pedals to the drive wheel of a bicycle, thus enabling the bicycle's motion.
		Prior to the safety bicycle, bicycles did not have chains because the pedals were attached directly to the drive wheel.
		Adding the chain provided for gearing thereby allowing the size of the driving wheel to be reduced, as well as allowing the bicycler to change the amount of resistance provided by peddling, according to whether going through difficult or easy terrain.
