That's it for my old chain - definitely time for it to hang on a wall :)

Have gotten to the point where I want to do more of my bike maintenance myself. This is an excellent video full of great info. Your delivery of info to "common guys" like me is spot on. Just GREAT stuff... soooo very helpful!

you're using the park tool chain checker wrong. you dont set a value first and then insert it to see if it fits. you just insert it at 0 and then push on the dial until it stops. and that tells you how worn it is. the whole benefit of the tool is that it shows you exactly how worn the chain is immediately without needing to remove the tool and reinsert it multiple times.

The Park CC-2 is not accurate even when used correctly. The CC-4, Pedro’s checker + are better options. The Shimano TL-CN42 is one of the better checkers available. CC-4 for SRAM flat tops

Just a question. What is the purpose of the 2 holes on the side of the tool. Do you or anyone else knows know, for sure I don't.

I have used the 12" ruler method for over 40 years, never even considered buying a dedicated chain checker, but I agree that the fixed version w/o moving parts is good enough.

It is so easy to use a simple ruler but yeah the bike hand tool is super nice for the price
