You'd be a real fool not to. But it's pretty foolish to do what you suggested in the first place, too.
Anywwy, a great example of what not to do.
Total ignorance. You have absolutely no clue what you're talking about. None. Why do you think Shimano sells replacement pins? Why are replacement quick links sold? Why is it in 31 years I have never had a chain snap on me after I replaced those things countless times?
