im goin bikin early tomorrow and dont have time to go to the shop. how can i do this myself without any extremely specialized tools?

well i got the bike used and i can tell its been through alot. im pretty sure the chain is loose because it keeps skipping on the gears when i go up a hill and put tension on the chain. if this sounds like something else let me know
 
Well you could shorten the chain length but you need tools. But chain tensioners you need to buy it but you dont have time to go to the shop. I guess you'll just have to stick to one gear until you can go to the shop, sorry.
 
How do I work out what size seat post clamp I will need for my mountain bike? I've lost my quick release clamp for the saddle post of my mountain bike and I want to buy a new one online but the website I was on gave me this warning:
"Varying Clamp Sizes
Be aware that there are many variations in the size of the frame seat tubes. This means that clamps can come in many different sizes. Make sure that you know exactly what size of clamp you need before ordering"
How do I know?
