Chain and chain breaker source?
We can't find a (local) source for the #35 chain, or a chain breaker, anywhere near the Ann Arbor MI area. We've tried hardware stores, lawn and garden stores, small engine repair places, and bike stores.
The only lawn implement place that I found that stocks the chain is out (some guy with a minibike cleaned them out this week, darn it). The local small AND mega hardware stores such as Home Depot don't CARRY either one.
The bike stores don't know what we're talking about. They work with some thin chain spec'd in a combination of English and Metric system, and they said this is an *industrial* chain.
WRT the breaker, I know we can grind the links apart, but it would be nice to find a chain breaker to prevent accidental damage.
Any suggestions on where we can walk in and pick up either the chain and/or a breaker somewhere in our area?
Thanks!
