Being a bit of an old schooler, I thought I might have a pro go thru the process before installing my new oring chain. I struggled a bit on the last oring chain a few years back. Watched the video and got a chain press and did it precisely as Slavens described. I did not give a "like" after watching since I felt mr. Slavens was treating the viewers like we were stupid when he stated "...make sure you remove the tool when your done..." So, like a complete idiot I give my wheel a good spin to admire my handy work upon completion and...Crunch!! The tool hammers into my freshly fabricated custom fabricated chain defense mechanism. I narrowly avoided a disaster. So I'm back to give a "like". The world is full of stupid people...

Thank you! So many nice tips here. That's the difference between experience and reading instructions. I tried this for the first time today, using the same tools, and I noticed the pins were pushing out a bit on the inside of the chain, for the very reasons you explain here. Fortunately I stopped and came to search. Reversing the plate is exactly what I need to do. "You don't pry anything unless you have to." How many problems could be avoided if that adage was adhered to.

After I chased the clip around the garage 10 times, pinched my fingers, lost an o-ring and bent the plate, this worked well for me .

I've never done this before. Spent about 30 minutes trying to coax that clip on with a flat head screwdriver. The pliers on the pin worked the first time. I feel like an idiot.

Do your self a favor and get the motion pro master link press. Best thing ever for master links. Pres off, press on. No juggling a bunch of plates and screws.

Yep. As per Jeff's video. if you have it going the other way, there is the chance that it could come off during riding if it catches. Less of a chance with this the closed end leading towards the chain direction.

You can just use some pliers to sit the plate in place or you can get a mate with a piece of wood to hold it on the other side and hit it with a small socket that fits over the pins
