hi,
is a 1/2 x 3/32" chain ok for a dawes kingpin?
also, i don't have the sigma connecting link, is it ok to just use one of the existing pins to connect with?
and i have this old mce chain extractor tool, i can't seem to get the chain to stay while tapping out the old link. any tips? i think you push down on one side of the extractor on the floor with the metal pole pushing it down, to keep the two arrow shaped bits gripped on the sides of the chain or on the side of the chain? and then wind out the pin?
if i pull the wheel back in the dropout right to the back, and then wrap the chain around tightly, thehn when i attach the back wheel and chain, when i move the wheel to the front of the dropout, that should give enough chain play right??
many thanks for your help.

hi there, i just use 3 in 1 oil on a deore chainset, do you think that this is right or wrong? or is there something else that i should use that's generally accepted to prolong the life and treat it a bit better?
many thanks.

sweet, thanks for the nod, i figure it doesn't matter if the disc is a bit fatter. there's still the hole to put it in there and hold it and twist the cable through. is there any way to attach a new disc if it's broken off? are they soldered on or something? btw hatbeard, love the username.

let me show you, one sec.. puts the magic picture maker on
it's a bit of a pain, it's more like a thin little disc, maybe i can get the one you linked to and shave it down a bit.
thanks rodabod. do you recommend anything that's less oily? what do you use on your chain?
