Arghh! Done it again. I bought a Shimano chain and forgot what a crap split link they come with. I eventually got it on but it's a stiff link. I just ordered a bunch more split links and link pins. They cost an incredible amount for the little bits of metal they are.

Bin the Shimano!

Following forum advice I use KMC chains, and SRAM cassettes.

That advice would never come from me. Shimano hyperglide chains without quicklinks on everything for me. I have chains and cassettes which are well over 3k miles and still perfectly fine.
Shimano hyperglide chains are the best imho

The older I get, the faster I used to be ...
KMC quick links - with Shimano, Campag, all, 7 8 9 10 11 speed chains. No faffing about with special pins, lengths of chain etc etc. :thumbsup:
