Shimano/Taya/Sigma chain link - what's the secret ?
No tools it said - what a clever idea I thought.
Not unless you have the fingers of a rock climber , or what is the secret. One thing I learnt long, long ago , tie a bit of wire a few links back either side of the link before removing or replacing to take the tension off the link area. With these links the only way I could put one end on the pin and then just preliminary place the other one was to put a bit of a set in that closure link, so it would slide over the top of the second pin when firmly pushed by finger. Then 2 pairs of molegrips, not particularly firmly gripping but enough to be able to flex the made-bridge piece enough to complete the locked closure. |
