    Holy crap Aventon! What is this silver stuff you're putting on your chains?!? I've tried 2 different strong degreasers

    What chain did you replace it with? I'm thinking I'll just get a new one and quit messing with this one.

    Definitely not corrosion, I can remove it with my fingernail. The Chain is about a week old. I'm just dregreasing it and the cassette to get a wax lube applied.

    Getting bike and me ready to ride after long layoff and injury... replace tires??

    3 year old tires, stored indoor are just fine! No worries at all.

    Installing a quick link on Aventon chain

    Can I just pop out any link (I have a chain tool) on the chain and replace with a quick link? I've got the quick links but hesitated. I looked hard for a joining pin, but my old eyes couldn't find one.
