You can't do that if you're using 11s or more. Rejoining 11s and up chains
using a chain breaker is not recommended. My "trick" is to buy 11s chains
at $10/pop when they go on sale once a year and a bunch of quick links at
the same time.

If you have certainty that you won't swap a drivetrain, simply buy two
chains. The second chain will be enough to populate several chain
replacements, granted they are of the same chain. No need to use two quick
links either, if you have a chain breaker and know how to use it.
On Thursday,
Count how many links you have now. Call Will & Riv & he will use their bulk chain to send you one the correct length. EZPZ. Cheaper than buying two & easier.Sent from my iPhoneOn Apr 25, 2024, at 10:58 AM, Edwin W wrote:I have a Joe Appa with long chain stays, which necessitates a long chain,
