OGA" is famous as a stunt rider, and recently he has been enjoying the tough forest roads, which are distributed on Youtube as "OGA Channel", so many of you may have seen it.
OGA is conducting an undercover visit to the factory of the supported company, DID. This is the third edition of his undercover project, "Basic knowledge of Chains", which follows the Chain Factory Tour and Rim Factory Tour.
This is a basic knowledge project about chains that has been featured many times on Webike, and it is really easy to understand because it is directly explained by a chain professional!
Or rather, a simple question that I asked as a prelude to basic knowledge "Why doesn't DID make the color chains that are popular in other companies?" and the answer to the question is so unexpected that you might be a little surprised.

Review of the DID factory visit.
See the chain factory up close!
Get up close and personal with the rim factory!
First, look at the chain factory tour section and the rim factory tour section.
A simple question, why does the chain stretch?
Chain internal structure
It's not the plate stretching.
Even the slightest wobble can be a big stretch with 100 links.
Surprisingly, many people misunderstand where the chain is stretched. This article provides an explanation of the The surprising result of "no overall plate stretching or anything" isn't something even the most experienced biker would know!
Why is it recommended to replace the chain and sprockets as a 3-piece set?
Examples of common sprocket wear
If the chain is stretched, you can still use it if you pack one more frame for the stretch? Such questions are denied with a straightforward answer. Of course, there are reasons to deny it, but it is easy to understand that it will be cheaper to replace all three items at once without being stingy.
A simple question that everyone thinks.
Why is it that it will undoubtedly sell well when it is released?
This was due to the fact that DID is a technical group with a strong craftsmanship. Maybe some of you have been expecting it to some extent, but this might be the first time it's been declared from the front.
That's it?
I didn't want these little efforts to go to waste.
Actual experience of stunt rider OGA
My current bike, a Triumph Street Triple 675
The actual stunt
The front and rear wheels take off using the extension of the front forks, and the momentum of the rotation causes the rear wheel to land on the ground and bring it into a wheelie without the front wheel touching the ground, which puts an unthinkable strain on the chain.
As a stunt rider who rides hard, he suffered from severe chain wear and tear, but after introducing a supported secret weapon (ERV3 series), he was able to dramatically reduce the problem.
