Fast chain wear can be caused by :
- worn sprocket(s) as they stretch the rollers apart, causing the chain to heat up and pump the grease out, and force metal-to-metal contact
- wheel out of line with the front sprocket causing the chain to s-bend as it reaches the sprocket, causing it to heat up and pump grease out, and force metal-to-metal contact
