Chain replacement time?
How do you know when to change your chain? and should the sprokets also always be changed at the same time?

if you run out off adjustment then the time is right, but also if its full of tight spots as for the sprockets if they show signs of bad wear e.g teeth hooked then its time. generaly two chains to one set of sprockets
