What do bmx chain adjusters do?
they keep your chain tight
When I tighten the chain on my BMX by pushing the wheels back as far as they will go and do the nuts up relly tight after i pedal it goes loose again. Any Help?
let me rephrase what the previous user said. i ride bmx and i know almost eveything about bikes. your chain gets loose because your frame dropouts are striped. when you pedal the strip is going towards the frame so your chain gets loose. the only best idea is to get washer, bring to bike shop to resurface it flat and recreate the integrated chain tensioner, or go on daqnscom.com to buy some chain tensioners that work really well.

How do you take a half link chain of a bmx?
If you're using a 1/2 x 3/32 chain (or "10-speed chain") on your BMX bike, you're out of luck. You can't half-link those chains. If you have a 1/2 x 1/8" chain, you can buy what's called a "half-link" (go figure!). I've seen them range from $2 to $10 and they go in place of 1 1/2 links in your chain to get you that ideal chain length if you find you don't have enough drop-out adjustment to prevent either a too loose or too tight chain.

How many gears does a standard bmx bike have?
Two, but this is not the same as how many speeds the BMX bike in question has. A BMX bike has a sprocket in the front, and a cog in the back and each is a gear, but is considered a single speed bicycle because two gears and a chain are required for transmission of rotational force from the crankset to the rear wheel.
