I use a C type split link on the Jota and for some unexplainable reason it regulaly ? looses the C clip, so I have to check the chain each time the bike has been out for a run!!!

Before any bright spark asks, I always fit the C clip in the right direction to chain travel!

I use splitlink chains on all my race bikes and never had a problem but always lock wire the link. This always made scooter916 laugh untill he went out at cadwell last season and lost the c-clip off his chain.

I use them on the DR all the time...as I'm often changing wheels/sprockets combos etc...never had a problem with them.

The Duke on the other hand, as the gearing remains the same for 99% of the time, I always rivet the link for that extra peace of mind.
