Operation: How do you replace the timing chain on the Mini R50?

In order to replace the timing chain of the Mini R50, you need to completely disassemble the right front wheel, unscrewing the bolts and removing it from the corresponding hub. It will then be possible to remove the mudguard and the front bumper by unscrewing all the screws which fix these components: in this way the timing chain cover will be visible and can be removed by unscrewing the screws which fix it. Once the cover has been detached, it will be possible to disassemble the chain tensioner, reducing the tension and completely detaching the old chain from the chainrings.
