Re: [St] Chain breaker, riveter



I have just used one of these
http://www.mikesxs.net/mikesxs-tools.php?category_id=7.1 (scroll down) to
change the chain on both my Sprint and XR.

Cut the chain off, fit new sprockets, fit the new chain use this tool to
peen (?) the rivets.  Job done.  

For the money, it can't be beat.  In fact that site sells some very good and
useful tools very cheaply.

I have the motion pro jumbo. I've used on several chains already, 
Including swapping the drive chain on my buddies snow blower to a 530
x-ring. It makes doing the deed easy.
