Thom Posted February 15, 2006 Report Share Posted February 15, 2006 My friend just recently bought a KMC chain and he told me that the missing link is not like the connex or sram powerlinks. He told me that once it is locked it is like a normal link and cannot be undone by hand. I just ordered my kool chain and I'm wondering if this is true ? and what is the point of this link ?

mat hudson Posted February 15, 2006 Report Share Posted February 15, 2006 the kmc quickling in theory is just as strong as a normal link, however, thats where all my chains went, so i dont run it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan6061 Posted February 15, 2006 Report Share Posted February 15, 2006 Just an easier/stronger way to connect a chain. I don't use them though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
