When I got this Falcon I didn’t have the tools to take apart the bottom bracket to make sure it was ok. The bike went to a local bike shop to have the bottom bracket serviced and to change the RD from a Campy Velox to Nuovo Record. The freewheel had just come from a Pastorbob service and the RD was cleaned and jockey wheels replaced.
‘I put maybe 10 miles on the bike and went back to polishing the rims. I noticed the jockey wheels had crud on them and the chain was completely cruddy. It occurred to me that the LBS never cleaned the chain and I failed to notice. Took it off today and ran it in the ultrasonic with Dawn as a degreaser. Well, it needed more than dawn but noticed it was a Renold chain.

Do I need to use a specific master link or quick link or just push the pin back it?
