Without wanting to appear cute in any way, maybe you could visit Stockists (I found this by clicking a link from their home page) and call a stockist? Depending on your phone provider it's totally free or maybe a couple of pence a minute. (bear in mind the time differences and that they speak funny ).

Or you could search for a stockist using an internet search engine? I found the one that is top left on the page: Their website is Sutto's Motorcycle Supply They have an online shop. Any bricks and mortar retailer without an internet presence in the 21st century isn't going to be doing well (or has already gone bust).

All of the above assumes you're actually interested in purchasing the item. If not I sorry to trouble you.

Kindest regards

I've just got one, mail order Aus to UK £52. Loooks great- compact and light but pretty strong. Not used it yet but when I have I'll report back

I don't want to appear dense but why would you want to bother with a chain breaker? I agree with Tony P, why not just file the heads off and knock them out with a punch/nail... The thing to remember, is that if its a hard link that's broken, nearly every 'chain breaker' out there won't do squat. I'd just replace it with a split link and never worry about it again.

Makes all sorts of things easier as well like taking the wheel in and out,changing sprocket sizes from long geared road size to off road/high altitude windy roads etc.... Can't see that being done with an endless chain.

Just make sure that the chain you buy is over length, split it down to the smallest (road) length , then you've got a short length of matching links that you can use for different sprocket sizes or even to replace a length of broken chain.

In 25 years I've never had a problem with split links failing under use. Carry a couple of spares in case you lose a pin in the sand or just wear and tear and don't worry about working with your chain ever again,it allows you to tailor your bike to different conditions, which as I see it is a good thing.

I always use a split link so apart from when I first "trim" a chain to fit, yes in theory I shouldn't need a chain breaker.

However, I have had a normal link break out on the trail (I suspect a stone got caught between the chain and sprocket) and it was a pretty straight forward task to use my little chain breaker to remove the bent and splayed bit of chain and put in a new section (spare from when I first fitted the chain) with two split links. I think that would be a real faff to do with a file and a punch.

I may never need it again but my "chain repair kit" is something I always carry.

Each to there own I suppose.

Hey guys, I sell a pretty good quality chain breaker kit made by Stockton Tool Company.

Hi

This is one thing I thought I wouldn't need. In India the chain link started to wear badly causing a click everytime the wheels rotated. This was happening as the worn link came off the top of rear sprocket and suddenly expanding due to pull from engine. This click click click was driving me nuts and I knew it would cause wear and possibly fail so wanted to replace with a spare chain link I carried with me. In the end I changed the sprockets and chain I was carrying with me. However, fitting them was not that easy. The click was getting really bad in Manali so went to local workshop for mostly enfields. This turned into an adventure on its own.

Workshop 1 Manali India.
"Do you have chain tool"? Man attempted to remove using pliers! Cant find spring link.

Workshop 2 Manali India.
another 2 men attempted to remove using pliers, looking confused as to why they couldnt find spring link.

Workshop 3 - on road to Mandi from Manali.
Same again ... no chain split tool and another man with pliers. They tightened chain without me noticing. Stopped by side of road to slacken off overtight chain.

Workshop 4 - Mandi.
same again, no tools yet they had plenty of nice new KTM200s with linkless chains. Fancy toolboxes which were empty. Decided to head further south to large city.

Workshop 5 - Chandigarh KTM.
Lots of bikes there, no tool for chain.

Workshop 6 - Ducatti workshop Chandigarh.
No tools either, resorted to angle grinder and hammer/punch method.

This meant I had diverted south for 300km when I wanted to head north. Wish I'd brought a $30 chain tool.

I made the assumption all bike shops would have one.
