So... do you use campy 10s cassettes? Or have you found a cheaper alternative? Of course, I'm running a campy style hub.

Yes, I use genuine Campy 10-speed cassettes but I use the Veloce version which I can get for less than $40 from several UK suppliers. Any model higher up in Campy's pecking order is slightly lighter but a LOT more expensive and, in my experience, doesn't work or last any better.

Easy, I don't use Campy or Shimano 10s chains, Both are too pricey.

FBinNY,
What chains do you prefer?

GB: back to the topic

I use the shop quality Park CT-3. I do NOT like the pin that came with it. It's the same weak one that is used on the cheapie small one. It appears there aren't sub-$50 professional chain tools out there. The CT-3 was about $35. I know Park make higher end ones that busts your budget, don't know how good they are though: CT-2 and/or CT-4.3
