if they say its not built to re-use, why do they make a park tool to do so?
What I heard from a businessman in the bike biz: SRAM pays royalties on the Superlink patent for the 8s & 9s PowerLinks.
What I learned by looking up the patent online: It clearly states it applies to a *re-usable* link.
Draw your own conclusions.
