What type of chain breaker do i need?

[Jayy]

Hi, everyone. I am anxiously awaiting the arrival of my -1 inch LSR swingarm for my shee. I still have my stock chain, and need to remove a link to shorten it for the swingarm. What is the best type of chain breaker to get? Is the motion pro chain breaker any good? How hard is it to cut a link out and reattach the master link? I have never actually taken a link out of a chain. Will I need any other tools to do this besides the chain breaker? Thanks for you help!

the motion pro tool is pretty much the exact same thing as any other chain break tool. all your doing is removing the pin by pushing it out using the tool and the link comes right off. then using your master link like nrmal you connect the halfs together

Ok, thanks. I guess I will go with the motion pro tool then. It sounds simple enough.

A bench grinder is all you need....

if your running a chain with orings a bench grinder isnt the best idea... when we used it on my old chain it casued the orings close to the link we were cutting to melt because of the heal. not to mention a grinder costs moch more then a 15 dollar tool.

I alwayse use a dremel, just grind down the pin a bit. Never had any problems. Save your money dremel is easier than the tool it just requires electricity.
