I cleaned my chain today and put it in the oven to dry it @ <200 degrees F and shut the oven off. A while later I went to retrieve the chain and found the oven ON @ 450 F! My son had put something in, saw the chain on the tin foil and put the stuff he was cooking on top of it.....don't ask. Anyway I'm wondering if the temper of the steel has been affected?
reminds me of the story of the guy who washed his stinky cycling shoes in the dishwasher & didnt think to delete the drying cycle & the soles melted all thru the plate racks, hard one to explain to the wife !!
