Just buy it

You know you need it, you know you want it. Have a chain breaker and this link in your pack at all times. It's saved me a few times.

Of walking. Throw a few of these and a chainbreaker in the pack.

Fits and works as it should

No issues. Always good to have spares when and where you need them.

Your SRAM 11-speed chain may come with these, but I always carry a set of extra links on my rides. Who knows what can happen on the trail and it never hurts to have something that only takes a few minutes and no tools to get you back on the trail again.

Just like a tube, I always carry this, and hope I don't need to use it. Keeps you from needing to buy a new chain when you break a link.

Probably won't need it but...

Pack one of these with your multi-tool and odds are you'll never need it. Super light and easy to use just in case. Works great with 11 speed SRAM chains.

An essential piece of gear to have for any type of bike! You would not catch me dead with out one in my take away kit!

Super good to have!

I have spares of these for 9, 10 and 11 speed chains. They work on Shimano and SRAM equally well. They are dependable and make getting out of the woods much easier when stuff hits the fan.

Yeah, sure ... the proper way to repair a SRAM chain is with a new pin, but sometimes you don't have that option. This master link will help you get back on the road if you break a chain mid-ride. Not the easiest thing to open and close without a pair of master link pliers (like the Park Master Link Pliers item # PAR004Q), it can be done ... and will help prevent that dreaded phone call to a loved one to come pick you up.

Great

SO glad they makes these. Way nicer than having to fuss about with a Pin. I also feel more comfortable using this over a pin.

Must Have

I carry one in my keg with tire/tube, levers, C02, etc. These can be a live saver out on the road or trail. These are great to have around for bike builds, or if you find yourself in a pinch.

Easy to Use in a Pinch

These are great for doing quick repairs and makes taking chain off to clean a breeze. Thanks Sram! Use degreaser and a pliers if you can't get off.

Louis

Simple, easy, awesome.

Just get one. Throw it in your bag. and the next time you snap a chain with your piston like legs on your quest to be King of the Mountain, you can quickly throw this on and be back on your way to terrorizing the country side.

Don't Find Yourself Without One

Familiarity:

This is one of those repair items that pretty much doesn't matter until it really matters. You don't want to find yourself with a broken chain with no way of fixing it, even if there is a relatively easy way back to the trailhead. Whether it be my trail pack or fanny pack as pictured, pretty much an essential for anyone riding with an 11sp drivetrain.

Handy Spare

Familiarity:

I use shimano chains, so I don't have much use for a power link. However, I do keep one of these in my tool kit and Camelbak in case of emergencies. They work great in a pinch.

A Trail Essential

No matter how long or short the ride I always make sure to carry a couple of these in my pack or saddle bag. I carry them for the same reason I carry a tube and CO2 - to keep a great ride from turning into a long walk.
