I could say this is an argument for quick links, but I have a hard time seeing how a well made tool should break on first use. |

Only the fixed side is flush.
[QUOTE=Dave;2583083]Using the CL 552. Only the side that’s fixed is flush. It appears that since the rollers are thinner on the C12, it allows the KMC chain link plates to move inward making the pin sit proud and catch the pulley plate.

I've had no problems with this link on my Chorus 12 RD. I did orient the link as SRAM instructs, with the fixed flush pin on the outside and forward, when the link is on the top section of chain. |

I'm running 11 speed with kmc and noticed my plate was gouged. So the kmc is wider than campy chain? I never bothered with campy chain cause the kmc with quicklink is just easier to deal with. I can't seem to get part number for the inner cage plate for my derailleur. It's record, 2018.

All in, I figure it was about $145 or so. My other 11 speed setup had a Shimano quick link, and this one will be repaired using a quick link. |

[QUOTE=Yerma;2583309]I use the CL 552 KMC link. A sram axs link is too narrow, but a SRAM eagle link should work the chain is only a few thousandths of an inch wider than a Campy chain.

Strange, I tried both orientations and the CL552 still brushes the inside of the pulley cages. I’m sure it would quickly create a shallow groove in the alloy and quiet down after a few rides but it’s piqued my curiosity as to why you and others are not having the same issue. The link is clearly wider than the C12 and additionally it has much more lateral play due to the Campy inner link being narrower. It may be this additional play that is making it rub.
On a side note if anyone wants a Park 4.3 chain tool I have a virtually new one for $50. I’ve not had any past problems with Park tools save a torque wrench which the repaired and recalibrated under warranty. YMMV. Last edited by Yerma; 08-22-2019 at 08:11 PM. |

Sorry. I'm a bit late to the party.
I'm moving up to Campy Chorus 12spd over the next month, and I'm stuck on what chain to use. I wax my chains (the crock pot method, not the liquid wax in a bottle stuff), so my life would be easier with a chain that quickly splits and rejoins. I've been happy with KMC chains and Missing Links on my current Campy Record 10 speed drivetrain, but I'm a bit worried by the differing opinions and experiences I've read with KMC 12 Spd bits on Campy 12 drive trains. The worry I have with using a Campy chain is that, well, it would have to be split quasi-frequently. What is the limit on how many times you can split and rejoin a Campy 12 spd chain? Another downside to the Campy chain route is the cost of all the pins. The pins are about $14-15, aren't they? |
