BMX Chain Sprocket Replacement

Giriş

This guide will show you how to change a BMX sprocket on a BMX bike with pegs, step by step. Sometimes, a sprocket tooth will break, or you want to try a new BMX sprocket, so this guide will help you change that sprocket easily at home.

The sprocket is a component of the bike that looks like a star and it's located by the pedals spinning the chain as it is being pulled to make the back wheel spin to make the bike move. If the sprocket is damaged or broken, it can cause the chain to skip and potentially break out of nowhere, leading to an accident.

The only tool that will be needed is a 17mm socket, an extension, a ratchet, 2 Allen keys (one that fits the big compression bolt and a smaller one to fit the faller compression bolt), your bike, and the new sprocket that will be installed to the bike. Some hazards with this fix are the fact that your finger can get caught between the chain and the sprocket or the back wheel, so it is essential to make sure that your fingers are not in a position where they can get dragged into the teeth of the sprocket or caught in the back wheel.
