How do I fix a chain on my bike that keeps binding?

The chain tends to curl up but right after it goes through the front teeth before it reaches the back. I have a 10 Speed.

Look at the crank teeth. If they are worn or hooked you will get trouble. You'll need to replace the crank rings. I think you are describing "chain suck".

If the chain is not oiled you will get trouble. If you have any stiff links then try to ease the rivet a tiny bit. If the chain is more than a couple of years old then it should be replaced.

Try Put Oil On It Then Try Spinnig The Wheel With Your Hand 6 Or 7 Times

And If It Not Working I Suggest U Change It

Cause It Is Vital Part In The Bike
