KMC M/L-11 missing link (11 speed chain link)
Hi all,
I'm planing to install KMC missing link on 105 11 speed chain, I got some info that KMC 11 speed link is just for single use?
https://kmcchain.us/connector/ml-11/
I assume if I have KMC Master Link Pliers or any other tools removing missing link should be straightforward?
Any thought, recommendations?

They recommend the 11 speed link be used only once. However, I have used one multiple times. If the link is still fairly tight when you remove and install it, it should be ok to use. However, if I can remove it without the tool, and it snaps in place with no effort, I replace it. You can buy packages of a dozen or so for around $1.00 per link.

I've used the 11 speed KMC link multiple times. I take my chain off 1 per month yo clean. If you find them for $1.00 each please let me know where. They are $45.00 for a 6 pack here.
