After yet another struggle in the cold and dark to remove a filthy chain, I've decided I need a pair of these.
Are they universal? Any recommendations/must avoids?
thanks.
I have a KMC one - good for 9 & 10 speed. Probably works well with others.
I've got a set of the KMC removal ones - make life much easier compared to my previous home-made contraption made with a bent clothes hanger.
I have the Park ones. Ok they are a lazy mans tool for non cleaners of chains but for a tenner they make life jolly easy on the odd occasion of a sticky master link.
I got a set of pliers from poundland a while ago. One of them is a needle nose job. Put each end in a vice individually and shape the prongs to the shape of the expensive KMC etc... ones. Works a treat.
Kmc hassle free.you will wonder how you managed without.
Poundshop circlip pliers - slightly modded. I never normally buy cheap tools, but in this instance it seems to work.
thanks all.
Another Park user here. Turns a sometimes frustrating job into a 2 second easy one.
Was given a pair of Fatspanners finest to use in the workshop when they were introduced, and in fairness, they've been faultless. Pretty cheap too.
