DOH! ! ! You're right. I'm so used to using SRAM or KMC chains with links that I'm conditioned now to doing it the "Powerlink Way". I went over to the link method many years ago just for the ease of being able to remove a chain when required without needing to punch links. I guess I'm so conditioned to it that I immediately saw his finger as pointing out the wrong link. Sorry for any confusion.
