i took lots of bicycle chains off.is there a master link,if there is,just spread it and off comes the chain,but if theres no master link,then take a center punch and knock out 1 of the links and when you get ready to put it back on,just drive the pin back in.

The rear wheel has adjusting screws to tighten or loosen the chain. Back off the screws as far as you can then loosesn the axel nut, then push the rear wheel foward as far as it will go. You may have to pound or push hard to get it to move initially. Then there should be enough slack to remove the chain from the sprockets. Reverse this procedure to reinstall the chain.

Just take the rear wheel off. Don't use WD40 to lube it. It's way too thin. Buy a can of spray chain lube.

put it upside down, turn pedals and spray chain with WD 40. wipe off with rag.
