SRAM powerlinks , will they work on KMC chains ?
Cos they're half the price of KMC's own repair links
Muchos thanks.

yes."Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."

I think that SRAM ones should only be used once whereas KMC ones are reusable. Makes the price difference seem irrelevant.0

PowerLINKS are reusable. PowerLOCK is not.
correct.
Powerlock is 10spd."Do not follow where the path may lead, Go instead where there is no path, and Leave a Trail."

............they might be re-useable but they are damn hard to get apart...or is it me?
The last two I tried to remove I ended using a chain link exctractor instead as I just could not get them apart.
Any tips?0 -

Its gets easier lol.
The one I just installed was hard enough to get it to engage properly! had to give it a proper yank!0 -
...right.....I get it now, thanks for the Youtube clip......I wasn`t doing the "squeeze it together" bit!!
Many thanks for pointing out the video clip...(o;0 -
is it worth me putting one into my chain? i just bought a new chain and took the powerlink out cause i figured it would be a weaker link than just the normal bolted thru links. is there any real advantage to having one in? cheers guys0
