If it is Campy 10 speed, I just use the Park tool I have. The campy tool is $$$ and I couldn't justify it for use every 18 months or so...yet.

I agree, I think you could get more mileage out of one of their vino openers than a chain tool.

I started with the Park tool but couldn't follow through. The chain (10spd) has one of those hollow pin master links in it and it just did not seem like a match so I stopped. I'll just give it a try, can always throw a new master in there if I mangle it too bad.

I don't use their pin. I have a wipperman connex connector that I have always used for Campy chains. I like being able to take the chain off to clean it.
