Anyone here know a better option than this? I'm so tired of mine breaking all the time! Thanks

This is the one that all chain keepers dream of growing up to be. I have an older version of this one that has been going strong for a good ten years now.

The tool that BDA mentioned is the one...It is made by VAR, by the way. It is so simple and effective it is hard to imagine that anybody could eff it up, but I guess at least one imitator has....

Go to the hardware store and pick up a piece of 1/2" - 3/4" wide PVC tubing as long as as the width of your rear dropouts. Throw an old rear skewer through it. Works fantastic, indestructable and costs a buck or two.

You must have one made from steel not plastic.

Could be, I for sure don't remember a split down the middle of mine. I'll look at it tonight. I need to polish the cross bike anyway.
