Attempting a chain install at Benders Bar 19th/ South Van Ness Misson SF
I'm kinda stuck here unitll I find a master clip type or rivet for a 525 chain.
Old chain is popped off, new chain did not come with a master(?)
Anyone in this area have a master I can come get/drop by for several free beers/gas $$

Just barely, had to take the shame train.. Sleeping with my phone in my hand, 2 guys tried to snag my phone out of my hands. Held on to the piece and chased them off the train, shouting something particularly rude. Said; so this is how my week is going(!)

Did you get the ZVM-X or the VM? I just hit 20k on the SD and it's about that time...

Tempted to go with the ZVM just so I can get one in pink--err, I mean NICKEL plate.

p.s. I like your plan of attack.
1) get new chain
2) ride to benders
3) break off old chain
4) drink some stuff
5) try to put on new chain
6) drink moar stuff
7) INTERNET!
8) drnmk mooo4r sffuuuuuuu
9) get new internet friend to put chain on
10) take train to work the next morning because you're still too drunk to ride
:thumbup

Haahaha, you got that right bro!
I managed to take a bad idea and make it worse. Thankfully BARF is full of enablers to my boozy plight. Hell we made a day of it: KTM Chain Fail '012.
The ZVMX chain we put on phonetically sounded like the conversation we had after all was said and done! This recipe you have is a plan of grim disaster but " suffering makes great stories"
Thanks to Storm for stopping by and all the sympathetic on lookers witnessing my hilarious cocksure attempt at maintenance.
Shots or GTFO....
Better not see YOU at benders, cause I'll get you sloshed.....

P. S. :
You obviously checked your sprockets,
but consider Supersprox via KTMtwins.
Tried and tested great performance/ durability. Got over 20 grand on mine and the chain went out first(?!)
