Just received this tool and tried to fit a new shimano quick link to a new shimano 11 speed chain. When attempting to expand the link the metal stop on the tool prevented the link fully expanding. I modified it by sawing off the metal stop and now it works perfectly. I must admit the shimano quick lind does need considerable force to expand and I am not sure that standing on the pedals would have worked. Anyway this small modification did the job. Maybe BBB could simply do away withe stop as it is not needed.

Reviews
Good grip, about the right size, I like the additional locking to keep it more compact. Not much more to say about a chainlink tool
