It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:

Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.

Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.

Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

KMC has always been my go-to for chains and links, but I've never heard of Wippermann: How many years have you been using them?

How many years have you been using them?

Well over a year now, through a Canadian winter, too. I've unlinked and relinked them dozens of times.

I only learned about them when I got into chain waxing.

Before that, I was replacing quick links fairly often, and even had one sheer apart mid-ride ๐Ÿ˜ง

Wippermans are by far the best. Toolless to boot
