Quoted message said:I went riding today with a friend who had just installed a Campy 10 speed gruppo on this bike.
We only got about 5 miles before the chain came apart.
What kind of link was used to close the chain?? Campy first used the so called Permalink, but that
was replaced last year by the HDL link which is much better. For the first time ever, I "broke" a
chain this spring - the Permalink simply fell apart after 7 months of use.
Quoted message said:It seems like I read about people using a Shimano 9 speed 'power link' to join a 10 speed chain
but I have not been able to find where I saw that.
I have never heard about a ShimaNO 'power link', as far as I know they use 'HG connecting pins'.
Powerlinks are made by SRAM, who also makes the PC 99 Hollowpin chain that can be used by a 10 speed
system. You could also try the Wipperman Conex 10 link (and chain?).
Quoted message said:I would appreciate it if someone could tell me what is the best way to join the 10 speed chain.
Thanks.
Lewis.
