I've just fitted a ConneX link and I'm not confident> It seems to go on and off to easily. Does anyone else use one?

    Have used various quick links, Taya, Sedis, KMC on my bikes over the years and never had any problems with them coming undone. the only problem I've had with them is trying to find them under all the crap on my chain when splitting it to clean.
    I've added a signature to prove it is still possible.

    I've just done 50 miles on it today in mixed terrain and I'm much more confident now.

    The Connex link must be fitted the right way up. If it is upside down the chain will jump on an 11t sprocket as the side plate of the link sits higher than the chain.

    Thanks for that. I haven't got an 11t sprocket but I will check it out anyway.
