Master Link for DA 10?

[Xtr40]

I was just wondering if anyone has come across a master link
that works with a Dura Ace 10 speed chain. I have seen
people use a SRAM Gold link on CAmpy 10, but I don't want to
guinea pig it.

Thanks! Michael Lakewood, CO

I've used the SRAM gold link, and it's noticeably loose --
the rivets are too long, so there's side-to-side play, but
it seems to work fine. Probably won't come off as long as
the chain stays tensioned. Still, it made me nervous, so I
took it off. I think I may get a Connex 10 spd link and see
how that fits.

Use the Sram Gold. The Connex 10 sp link clicks. The
Interloc link, works fine but will skip on 11t cogs. I would
only guess that the KMC 10sp link works fine but it needs to
be cut to be removed.

DA 10s chain is very thin, thinner than Campagnolo 10s. I
haven't tried it(Connex) but altho it will install onto a DA
10s chaion, I think it may be noisy. The DA 10s tends to be
kinda noisy anyway with increased chain angles...cross
chaining even a wee bit.

Just talked to the Mavic dude and they say their chain, a
relabeled Wipperman, is DA 10s compatible, with the link...

We have some on order, we'll see...
