    want to borrow: chain rivet tool

    like the post says, looking to get this chain on my bike hopefully this coming week sometime, seeing if anyone near the Norwood, MA are has a chain rivet tool for me to borrow or if they feel giving and want to stop by to assist since it is my first time putting my own chain on (but seems pretty straight forward)

    The chain tool I have is a POS and I modified it to the point that only I know how to use it to get the job done. I wouldn't wish it on anyone.

    The latest version of the Motion Pro tool is as good as (copy of) the excellent RK tool.

    Any way you can spring for one?

    BTW, there's really nothing wrong with the clip type master links. You just have to make certain you have it in the right orientation for rotation of the chain.

    i have the motion pro. i have to dig around for a bit - we just moved and i have no idea where it is. well, i have some idea - it's in one of 30 large boxes in the basement. if i find it, you're welcome to swing by Hopkinton and get it. sorry i can't actually help, though. i have to get my trailer ready for tuesday.
