My daily bike wears out the chain and thus also external gears, in about 2 years. Short trip, but all weather conditions.

But just looking form the pictures it seems the walmart bikes also have shimano gears. Wonder why thread-OP things they are not replaceable.

Today I will get my internal gear with belt drive bike. Lets hope that last for a long time.



I believe i wore out about 5-6 chains before I wore out the gears. To be fair, I rarely oiled my chains, and gear wear was probably minimized by it being only a single-gear.
