Really works good, but I wouldn't want to carry it with me on the bike. The squeeze link tool is perfect to put in the same little bag I carry my CO2 tool and cartridges.
I've been thinking this over, and for the life of me I can't think of a situation where I would actually need a quick-link remover on the road with me. What ever goes wrong with chains? except that maybe very occasionally they break, in which case this tool would not be needed since the chain is already separated.
