This one tool makes assembling and taking apart re-usable chain master links a snap! Just the ticket and no more struggles to find the right pair of pliers, screw driver, etc.
A quality tool, just like all Park Tools!
I've started using Kimpex or Shimano master links on all my chains. These pliers are the safest & easiest way to install or remove a master link. Small enough for my seat bag if I need to take it with me.
I've been using quick connect links since they first came out. I clean my chains on a regular basis and these links make the job easier. I've always struggled a bit to get the links off. I tried using my bare hands; works only if the chain is really, really clean. I've tried needle nose pliers; I've had them slip and pinch my hands leaving blood blisters. Then this tool came along. I've only used it once, but it was so easy to use that I have to wonder why I didn't buy it sooner. If you clean your chain often and have a quick connect link, get this tool to make the job easier.
No more messing around with needle nose pliers. If you use chains with a master link,
should have one of these in your toolbox.
Like all Park Tools, these Pliers make installing or removing the master link easy. Very well designed. I have had many Park Tools and they all wear well. You can expect a lifetime of service.
Don't know why I didn't get this tool long ago! It makes it so easy and quick to remove and release quick links! We have S &S coupled single bikes and a coupled tandem for travel and chain removal is a key part of the disassembly and packing process. Every step is time critical when you are traveling and these pliers speed up and simplify the process (and your hands stay clearer too)!
Changing my chain was much easier with this tool. I was not able to get the link off without them.
As with all Park tools, these are easy to use and do the job well.
Park makes great tools and this is no exception. For removing and installing master links on the newer 11 and 12 speed chains this tool is the absolute bomb! Couldn't be easier!
i bought this for an easier way to remove and install chains using the quick links
It's a park tool, what can I say, they always work! I use mostly KMC chains and it makes installing a new chain a snap.
This is tool is a must for removing Master links. There are other ways and this tool makes it much easier.
This sure beats pliers! Installing my new chain was a cinch.
Park tools are always good. This is no exception.
Pliers worked as designed making for a quick and reliable repair.
I dont know how you get by without this tool.
Does it's job just as well as everything else Park Tool makes, it really is quite simple to remove the chain with the quick link setup. Although I'm sure I would be scolded for doing so I also used these to lock the new chain's quick link into place by reversing the process (obviously) - I'm sure this puts strain on the tool that was not intended but it works anyway.
Easy to use, helped change the chain in 5 minutes! It's worth having this beauty!
VERY easy to use!
Just the right tool for the job.
