You don't need a chain breaker, you can use a hacksaw to get the old chain off. The rear sprocket is no problem, but the front sprocket is quite a bitch to get off. My recommendation: get the socket, extension, a breaker bar plus a long piece of pipe, before you cut the chain off, loosen the nut on the sprocket by pushing the front tire against a wall and then put a 2x4 in the spokes of the rear wheel. Then you can relatively easily stand on the breaker bar to get that nut off.

Then you can cut the chain off with a hacksaw or chain breaker.
