TENSION
Most children’s bikes have one gear and as a result the chain tension is very important.
The chain should be able to move approximately 12mm(6mm up and 6mm down)at the mid-point
between the front and rear gear sprockets.

chain can come off the sprockets.
when the chain (30) is at the correct tightness,you can rotate the crank freely and you can pull it no more
than one-half inch(A) away from a straightedge (B) as shown.
