Pros

Sram recommends using a new powerlock every time you reconnect. Put the link on the top of your drive-train, hold the brakes in and put all your weight into a pedal *. Amazon sells master link pliers which are easier than removing pins to remove chain...  Read More



Cons

Nobody says wippermans are one-use items. These work ok, but are very overpriced for a one-time-use master link. I'm sure they are mass-produced by some giant stamping machine in taiwan or portugal for $0.

    I have found that powerlock masterlinks can be quite difficult to break by hand and it becomes even more so when your handsfingers are slippery due to grease


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Sram recommends that you use these links only once


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I have not been following that recommendation


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    When i replace the chain i replace the link


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Requires a quick link tool to open and i use channel lock pliers to close


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Perhaps some will try and use it twice but from my experience once it is removed a part of the metal locking mechanism is destroyed and the link doesnt grip nearly as well the second time


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Perhaps this is ok for the casual park or greenway rider but i wouldnt recommend a second use for a serious road or mountain biker


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Im drawn to park tools but im sure you can find another brand on amazon as well
