Wippermann distributor Peter White Cycles says this about Wippermann chains:

"Wippermann in Hagen, Germany makes the most durable chains for bicycles you can buy. Why should you care? Because it's a worn chain that causes most chainring and cassette cog wear.

"With a new chain, the load is distributed most of the way around the chainring or cassette cog. But when the chain wears, all of the load is taken by the chainring tooth at the top as the chain feeds onto the chainring, and the top cassette cog as the chain flows off of the cassette. So, keep your chain in new condition and your chainrings and cassette cogs will last much longer. Connex chains will stay in like-new condition longer than other chains.

"Of course, all Connex chains include the Connex link, which makes assembly and disassembly of the chain for installation and cleaning quick, easy and reliable. The Connex Link can be opened and closed as many times as you like. It's always secure, unlike many other "one time use" solutions."

Here is a short video explaining the simple installation of a Wipperman chain with the Connex Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UqGMPAFtWgo
