I knew this day would come. After only 5.5 years of owning chain driven bikes I need to adjust the chain tension. I have never done this before, because I've never had to. I check it all the time, and it's never been out of tolerance. The principle is simple, time to practice it - I know to make sure I change both sides evenly or bad things will happen.
Thing is, I don't have the tools for the job, but been wanting to become more self sufficient anyway... so... to be able to loosen off both front and rear wheel nuts, with their differing nut/bolt types, what do I need to buy? I'm aware that this is not an area to be cheap, but for occasional use, what's a good brand? I assume 3/8s is good enough? Any good wrech and socket sets worth considering?
Cheers
Rick
