  • Doesn't need to be porn worthy but any recommendations for a chain tool? My trusty 10 year old Fat Spanner number has just broken. I'm tempted to just get a like for like replacement (rebadged as LifeLine on Wiggle) but is there anything that's worth considering?

  • I got a Chinese knockoff pair of master link pliers off Ebay. Free shipping from China and they cost about $6. Buy a blister pack of links and you’ll be fine. A lot easier than faffing about with chain tools and pins.
    Not Snap-on level but fine for casual use.

    Are you looking at the Pro model? Nothing to suggest that's any better or worse than the dozens of more or less identical versions out there. I've had good luck with BBB if you're after a value brand e.g. https://bbbcycling.com/uk_en/btl-05-nautilus-ii but there are even cheaper chinesium ones on all the platforms which are probably fine too.
