Soft link stretch

#1 Post by spiderwheels » Sun Nov 23, 2014 1:59 pm

I was wondering why I had a tight spot on my chain, look at the gap between the two links held together by the soft link and the gap of the two links held together by a hard link next door:

Guess they don't call them soft links for nothing..

Unfortunately I've lost part of my chain splitter (the part that presses the pins out) so looking for a new tool as well as a new chain..
Insert humourous comment here
