    Do SRAM chains (10speed) still use the powerlink so you can easily remove the chain? (easyer to clean etc)

    Yes but the 10 speed links are not that easy to remove, I am using a KMC link at the moment and it is marginally easier.

    There are tools that help but i’m stubborn and tight.

    *tentatively puts hand up*

    I thought 10 speed SRAM quick links weren’t reusable?

    Me too. I thought the had to be removed with a chain tool….even they’re evil things to get off especially compared to the old nine speed ones.

    The 10 speed SRAM uses a power lock instead of the power link. The power lock is not intended to be removed.

    As above, powerlock not link, shouldn’t be reused.
    I use KMC chain, and the link was fairly easy to take apart by hand and replace. Go KMC. 🙂

    SRAM powerlinks are supposedly single use, but they can be removed with pliers and re-used. I’ve done it a few times, sometimes they pop off no problem, others they can be very stubborn

    I’ve reused my link now about 3 times. I must be living on borrowed time, eeeeppp!
