Review by PSBiker
I converted to wax about a year ago and have gotten good enough at the hot dip process that I don't even bother with touching up a chain with drip wax. Every 200 miles or so, I just swap the chain for a previously dipped chain. But, that means lots of "chain-breaking". IMHO, the "use-once" warning on OEM quick links seems to be a joint statement from the Legal and Marketing departments. But, still . . . quick links do have a limited life. These YBN quick links are an economical way to avoid pushing your luck by using a quick link one too many times.

Compared to the Shimano equivalent master link, this is about a third the cost. The manufacturer of this product says it can be re-used 5 times. Shimano says their master link can't be re-used at all. So, if all you care about is cost, then this master link is the way to go. I've used this master link for about 500 miles and I can't tell the difference between it and the Shimano equivalent. Of course even a single failure would negate any cost savings. Only time will tell.
