Hi All,
I got a 530 DID chain to fit to my newish B5 before going on tour, and I cut the bloody thing too short (God knows how). So I cut an extra piece from the left over chain, and ordered another link with a clip, but...they sent me a link with a rivet instead, as per the image below (ignore the o-rings, mine is non-o-ring, as is necessary for the B5). I don't have time to re-order and do not have a rivet tool. Is there a trick for riveting the clip using ordinary tools?
Thanks,
Matt
Ps The reason I did not use the link from the current, new stock chain on my bike, is because the DID chain is slightly wider and will not take it. Does this matter, in the context of the fact that we cannot use o-ring chains and the like on a B5 because they are too wide? I'm assuming not, given that it is only a very slight fraction wider.
