[edit] Master Link or Not

I don't believe the distinction between bikes with chains with master links and bikes with chains without is correct. There are plenty of single-speed bikes without master links, and there are plenty of many-geared bikes (21-30) with master links. SRAM makes chains suitable for 8 and 9 speed rear ends that include their 'Power Link'. KMC makes a 'Missing Link' that works well with Shimano 10-speed chains. Any objections to me making a correction? AndrewDressel 13:52, 17 July 2006 (UTC)



[edit] confusing text

the text is too verbose and uses too many undefined technical terms for a general reference, could someone please re-write the usage of this tool in a more straight-forward and general manner, perhaps with diagrams (or at least link to definitions of the terms used, like "roller" for instance). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.229.85.62 (talk) 12:53, 1 February 2008 (UTC)
