I'm helping my son clean up an old mid-70's 5-speed (one rear
derailleur) Schwinn bike he just got. The chain is pretty funky so it
wants cleaning and re-lubing. It's a 1/2-inch pitch chain. I can't see a
removable link. The link pins don't appear to be straight stock with
flat faces, like newer chains, but look like rivets on the ends. So
before I apply my handy link pin pusher-outer tool, I would appreciate
any helpful suggestions from folks who know about these chains.
