Get a Wipperman

By Matt Russ

I purchased a Wipperman chain a year ago when I got tired of "breaking" my Shimano stock chain to remove it. The Wipperman has a special link that allows quick and easy removal; no tools required. You can then soak your chain in a degreasing solution. Not only does this get your chain cleaner, it allows you easier access to your drivetrain for cleaning and inspection. The Wipperman eliminated the messy process of cleaning my chain with a chain cleaner.
