Question

Wat if my bmx bike chain doesnt have a master link wat do i do to take a link out then?

Answer 1

you need to get a chainbreaker. Your Local Bike Shop will have them, or you could have the shop take it out.

Answer 2

You'll need a chain breaker.  I like Park's best.  The cheaper ones are much harder to work with.  I've never regretted paying more for a good tool.

Check the video below on how to use one.

How you put it back together depends on the type of chain.  Shimano has a special rivet that you drive in and then break off.  On old school chains you would just not drive the rivet all the way out, and reuse it.

SRAM uses a master link, called the Power Link, and I've successfully used those on other brand chains, including both Shimano and Campy chains.  I use them on all my bikes, and unless you need to remove links you can break your chain in the future in the field, without the use of a tool
