for swapping the chain and keeping her balance

Congratulations! I haven't swopped a chain yet, so you sure have my admiration. Plus keeping balance & making it up that hill...fantastic skills.

Does anyone really use the "powerlink" removable link they provide with new chains now? The couple times I tried one of these things I've given up and grabbed my faithful chain tool to drill out a pin. So much easier. Of course, there's an art to drilling out pins...

I use the Powerlink. In fact I took it off my old chain and put it on my new one when we rebuilt my entire train - 3 new chainrings, a whole new cassette, replaced the front derailleur cable.

The trick to the Powerlink is to squeeze the sides a little bit.

I carry a powerLink with me. Saves a lot of time if you break a chain during a race and a bit of frustration when you're not racing.
