Well Cycletreads had a DID standard chain really cheap, so I went and bought one. They even chucked in a clip link and cut it to 98 links for me! No wonder I keep going back there.

Anyway I got home now and unfortunately though they did cut it to 98 links, only one side is cut, so I can't put in the clip link. It's like this:



______ ______ ______
______ ______ ______ ______

So anyway I was wondering if anybody really nice would like to help me chop off these extraneous outside links. Even an angle grinder on the pin would do it, wouldn't it?

Grind the pin and a drift punch. Or borrow my chain splitter.
