Changed from Clip to Crimp
The Chain attached to the used vehicle was connected in a Clip type.
According to the service manual, the Clip type should never be used according to the service manual, so I considered replacing the entire Chain, but since it was relatively new and the Chain itself was in good condition, I replaced only the Joint.
The one that was installed was DID's VXSteel, so installation was not a problem.
The color was set to Gold to make it easier to distinguish one round in ChainMaintenance.
Also, since I had never replaced a chain by myself, I thought I could buy a tool and challenge myself, and if I failed, I could replace the whole chain, so I replaced it as a matter of practice.
It was a good experience.

Crimp's reliability is outstanding
I bought the Clip type by mistake when I purchased the Gold chain and added it to my order.
I like the CrimpType for safety and reliability because it's dedicated to Touring and I'm afraid it might break off at a distance.
