[QUOTE="David Trustrum, post: 190366, member: 21529"] Most decent chains you have to clamp them to push the joining link through. This however isn’t enough to guarantee they won’t disassemble at an inopportune moment. You either have to have a master link or a rivet link on an non endless chain. The rivet link or endless is more secure as clips like to get ripped off by chain stays etc. Clean your chain & inspect the links. If it the joiner is a rivet type link there will be indentations in the end so you can peen them over (support from behind with anvil). But I suspect the link is a master type & the plate isn’t on far enough to expose the clip groove. Find if any links are wider or loose. If this is the case it can be squeezed on with a G clamp & a nut between the rivet or over the rivet ends bit at a time either side. Hey maybe you chain wasn’t supplied with a master link & you went & bought one for a non o-ring chain that would have been narrower?? If you must use a masterlink type clean it up & put some silicone over it to help retain it [/QUOTE]
