Installing A Shadow Conspiracy Interlock V2 Chain Step By Step

[@SteveWatkinsPeaches]

I could just listen to this as chill times, I'm lovin the voice.

[@mc85eu]

An excellent video - it's reassuring to know Park (Tool)'s custom breaker will work. Thank you! I will NOT buy SL's own breaker, now (although it's undoubtedly high spec).

Hey can you use the odyssey chain tool to install the shadow chain as well as break it?

[@craigkocourek1745]

Wow. More involved than I thought.

[@thebasementbikeshop2336]

Thanks Craig. I try to make videos that i would want to watch if i wanted to learn how to do something.

[@cameronrieta2590]

Can you make this same video with a cult half link chain please, its symmetrical and i dont know which way it goes?

[@jeremiefitzpatrick9722]

Great detail tho on how to actually do it right👌🏻

[@dinomares5697]

Good job From Dino Mares Fontana CA

[@basherz_den]

Awesome info man.. thank you so much

[@thebasementbikeshop2336]

You're Welcome! And thanks for watching!

[@45graham45]

Thanks for the video. Why so a chain always have a tight spot & a loose spot? I can never see why that happens - I thought it was just the chain on my bike that did that

[@3odiss]

if I'm not mistaken, then this is due to the crooked star

[@jeremiefitzpatrick9722]

Would the shadow supreme one fit on my new 2021 Sunday? Or does it fit on any new basic 25t sprocket?

[@sasproductions701]

hi im after a 28t sprocket and ive seen one i like. its a TotalBMX Victory sprocket. ive also seen the shadow interlock v2, but theres one called v2 race chain. now my bike isnt for a specific sport like street or race. i just want a 28t as it will give me better drive. and i want a halflink chain because they look better quality and it will last me good. i also know i cant get a spline sprocket or a drive sprocket as my bike doesnt have that. will the totalbmx victory sprocket and shadow interlock v2 chain / race one go well together? im not sure what the difference is with the 2 chains maybe 1 one is thinner.

[@thebasementbikeshop2336]

The race is thinner and might not work with the victory sprocket. The regular v2 will work for sure.

[@sasproductions701]

@@thebasementbikeshop2336 ok thanks for the reply it was a very good video and it helped me. cheers.

[@louisandallan]

Does the Park Tool CT-3.3 chain breaker work with shadow conspiracy chain?

[@thebasementbikeshop2336]

Yes

[@mavemods1085]

Hey can I youse the Half Link on a 9t driver?

[@thebasementbikeshop2336]

Yes. I do.

[@dan2hamilton]

I bought 2 of those and they both broke. Know if any other brand of chain breaker would work on a shadow chain?

[@thebasementbikeshop2336]

I feel the Park Tools CT-3.2 (not the CT-3) chain tool works the best. I've also had good results with the odyssey chain tool.

[@basherz_den]

The shadow chain breaker is what most people use

[@dan2hamilton]

Proof Emcee I have used that they suck. I had 3 of them break on the first use

[@JRuiz33]

Great video

[@The65ghia]

Thanks Bruddah …!!! 🤙🏼🤙🏼🤙🏼

[@maofutah7368]

That bike is sick what kind is it?

[@markrutte5637]

what if i fked up and pushed the pin out..

[@Roshan_420]

My back gear doesn’t slide smoothly onto the chain but my sprocket is fine :/

[@Roshan_420]

I moved the chain 180° and now it works fine so the smaller gap is the first thing that touches the back gear followed by the larger gap :)

[@stanmaskell8663]

[@tookurbmx1504]

get the shadow chain breaker

[@thebasementbikeshop2336]

I might. I've heard bad things about it especially when breaking a shadow v2 chain but i should get one to review it myself.

[@younglittlesavage6098]

If anyone who sees this is interested, yes most sprockets and cranks will have a tight spot.. when you tighten the crank bolt behind the sprocket it just happens. To avoid that chain tension difference as much as possible get a SPLINED sprocket. Pretty sure they only sell them for 48 spline cranks though. This way it will always be as perfectly symmetrical as it can be and you won’t have to fidget with the chain’s difference in tightness/re adjust 1000 times.

[@xersion5233]

Good video but your tongue noises bothered me so much

[@thebasementbikeshop2336]

Thanks. Sorry about the "tongue noises" bothering you. If you think that's bad, you should heard me eat.

[@xersion5233]

The Basement Bike Shop thanks for the video tho it really helped and sorry for judging

[@lkl206]

It's called a lisp and he can't control it bro just in case you haven't figured it out a year later😂

[@xersion5233]

@@lkl206 yeah I know I was being dumb I just rewatched the video and I don’t even know why I commented that in the first place I don’t notice anything wrong. Plus his vid helped me get my chain on last year.

[@user-yc3fd3et7s]

Do not buy shadow chains! Worst chain iv rode for over 10 years. It broke on me 3 times in 6 2 hour sessions. Be fair warned
