what’s the benefit
of the new pin? other than to make campag a big pile of cash from all the bike shops having to fork out for a new tool? is there a performance advantage?
i’m liking this offical campy statement to bike shops:
“only by using this tool is it possible to perform the riveting of the closing pin (5-CN-RE500) included. We should point out that without this riveting operation, the pin can protrude from the link, causing the automatic opening of the chain with the due consequences.
“Without wishing to wage useless psychological terrorism, we do want to give the due importance to this operation, reminding everyone of the consequences of a civil and criminal nature for those who, not having performed the assembly perfectly, may cause serious and/or irreparable harm to third parties (customers).”
if you don’t use the right tool YOUR CUSTOMERS WILL DIE 🙂
