How to Choose Chain Tools
A few simple chain tools let you fit, check and maintain your chain at home, saving time and money on workshop visits. The right tool depends on the job and the chains you work on.
Chain Breakers
A chain breaker, or rivet extractor, pushes chain pins in and out so you can shorten a new chain or remove a damaged link. The Super B TB-3305 is an affordable tool for single speed and 6-10 speed chains. For 11, 12 and 13 speed chains, choose a universal tool such as the Super B TBCC66, which stores hex, Phillips and Torx bits in the grip, or the Premium TBCC65-2, which handles 5-13 speed chains including SRAM T-Type and Flattop.
Chain Wear Checkers
A chain checker tells you when your chain has stretched and needs replacing, before it damages your cassette and chainrings. The Super B TB-3330 suits 5 to 13 speed chains, including SRAM T-Type and Flattop. The Premium 3-in-1 tool also checks freewheel wear.
Master Link Pliers
Quick links can be hard to open by hand. The Super B Trident opens and closes master links with one hand, making it easy to remove your chain for cleaning or replacement.
Cleaning and Chain Keepers
The Super B Chain Cleaner scrubs your chain on the bike with three bristle rollers and a magnet to catch metal particles. A chain keeper or tensioner holds the chain in place when the rear wheel is out, perfect for washing your bike or packing it for travel.
Chain Tool FAQs
Do I need a special chain tool for 12 speed chains?
Yes. Use a universal or 12-13 speed compatible chain breaker, such as the Super B TBCC66 or TBCC65-2.
How often should I check my chain?
Every few hundred kilometres, or whenever your shifting starts to feel rough.
When should I replace my chain?
Replace single speed chains at about 1% wear, 5-10 speed chains at 0.75% and 11-13 speed chains at 0.5%.
What is a chain keeper for?
It holds the chain tensioned at the rear dropout with the wheel removed, so the chain does not tangle or scratch the frame.
