    I greased the chain and inflated the wheels and everything is fine, but the bike can’t go uphills well.

    anyone know how to feed the chain on to the front smaller chain holder section? I can easily move the back on to the bigger side, but need to get the front on to the smaller part so i can bike easier up hill. Right now the way it is, it’s only good for flat land but on hills i gotta push the bike up

    anyone got any tips? when i try to force the chain past the small metal part that’s blocking and holding the chain up to the upper chain holder, in pic 3 and 4, it doesn’t feel natural, but if that’s the only way, then I’ll try it later. Let me know

    I had a variation of this bike way back then and it had a left hand shifter for the front of the chain. It sounds like you've already checked that and this one doesn't have that or it's not working properly
