How can I prevent my bicycle chain from slipping off the sprocket?

Asked by Vincentt (8094points) January 5th, 2011

My bicycle is nearing the end of its lifetime, but until I’ve got a new one, I’d like to keep using it without spending more money on it.

However, the bicycle chain has lengthened considerably. A while ago, I adjusted my rear wheel to position it farther away from the front, but now the chain is loosening again, and I can’t move the wheel further. I don’t have the tools to remove a single link. Are there other tools to tighten it up again?
