Things I learn every day. Now I'm not sure if it's a feature or just broken ![:lol: :lol:](https://forum.bikeradar.com/resources/emoji/lol.png)
When I installed the chain first time I didn't use the ql as I had no !special! tool, now I do, it took me some strength to push it off, but now when I put it back on I can push it off with my fingers :!: :?:

Undoing/connecting quick links are all about the knack. Once you get it, it is normal to be able to undo and reconnect with your fingers0

I can unsnap most quick links with my fingers, sometimes the first time it's not possible, after that it usually is.Currently riding a Whyte T130C, X0 drivetrain, Magura Trail brakes converted to mixed wheel size (homebuilt wheels) with 140mm Fox 34 Rhythm and RP23 suspension. 12.2Kg.0

How loose. It should need a bit of force and wiggling to remove it.0
