They are more expensive when you buy them separately.

I've just thrown away a Connex link as the pin wasn't riveted square
with the outer plate. If used I can imagine it would have been the weak
link. Other than that my experiences with them are fine. They don't open
as easily as SRAM links when flopping about in a carboot (only of a
concern if you clean your chain ). Look for the shifting chamfer on
the linkplates to install them the right way up


My experience with the SRAM goldlinks lately are that I have to fiddle
with them for 15 minutes before installing to remove the sharp edges of
the slots, which makes opening a big PIA.
