Lurkin said:Go and buy the correct tools. They are relatively inexpensive and you will use them in the future. It's worth it.
Should also at least check for chain wear as an indicator of both chain and cassette wear when you put on a new front chainring, including a lekkie ring. Old chains on new rings is not good for them if they are worn. Chains and cassettes are relatively cheap online compared to the cost of a new Lekkie. Again, if you had bought the cassette tool, this is very simple and quick task to do.
Buying a new chain, cassette and tool is cheapest online.
A bicycle ownership hallmark moment. Tools. The first step to independent. The next is to be patient and somewhat dependent. Good searching skills, polite requests, and pictures garner great help. No need to break anything and better avoided with Lurkins spot on advice.
