I have signed up for the FNRTTC, and the guide says to carry a spare chain link.
I have a Shimano HG73 9-speed chain, however I cannot see that anywhere sells Shimano spare links. - Can KMC / SRAM ones be used? or do i just need spare Shimano Spare chain pins?
Sorry if its a bit of a daft question, on my old mountain bike I only ever had chains snap twice (once completely and the other one was just one side of the link) in five years, Each time I just used my chain tool to 'pop' it back together to get me home, and then bought a new chain.
Thanks in advance for any replies.
