I also have a new campy chorus 10 speed chain. Think its alright to use that with the shimano 10 speed stuff and wipperman links?
Did you read what I wrote? Wipperman and Shimano links (from the wide group) are too wide to fit a Campy or SRAM 10 chain. You can use them, but the fit is not ideal. Wipperman uses the curved slot to hold it in place. It's supposed to be easy to install, but don't install it upside down (read the instructions).
All that said, I'm running a Campy 11 chain with a sloppy fitting master link and it's caused no problems so far. A link that is too tight is more likely to fail.
