[flanagaj]

I was just looking at my DID chain that I need to fit and all I can see that I need is a tool that pushes into the hollows of the joining plate so as to increase the diameter of the copper end thus trapping the joining plate.

Has anyone made something to do this ?

If not can anyone supply a link so that I can buy one.

Thanks

PS - Hopefully off to Poole Quay this Tuesday for the first time :-)

I have one, where are you? I am out and about on the bike today from Wimbourne.

Hi Rob,

I think you may have offered before. I live in Blandford :-)

[Rob B]

Do you want me to pop up?

[flanagaj]

That would be great. What I will do is to fit the new sprockets so that I am ready to do the chain and then I shall drop you a mail. I imagine it will be some time later this afternoon that I will be ready to fit the chain.

[Rob B]

Ah, I am planning to ride out in the next hour or so, and busy after that.

Thanks for offering. I will buy one and do it in the week.
