The ProfiConnect is BBB's professional chain breaker. It can be adjusted to the width of the chain, which makes it compatible with any chain, including 12-speed.

Use the chain hook to release the chain tension and to keep the links in place as you work. There is a hole in the tool for breaking off the pin, and a hole for hanging up the tool itself.

Not convinced

- Damien 14 February 2024

The tip broke after two uses. Luckily there is a spare tip. Unfortunately, one of the brackets to rest your chain got bend as well after one use. Maybe I used it wrongly, but it should not break this easily. To end on a positive note, even though several parts broke pretty easily, the tool still works to shorten the chain (but I can not lengthen a chain anymore, because of a misalignment caused by the bent plate).

Pros & Cons

Did it’s job
Fragile

Unpleasantly surprised

- Joost 31 January 2022

Unfortunately, this chain punch disappointed me a bit. Apart from being a handy tool to keep your chain together, it is, in my opinion, a poor quality product. Due to its very small size, it is somewhat difficult to apply force, but you will eventually get through. However, after using it once already, the punch was bent, making it practically unusable.

Good product with lousy manual

- Dennis 3 May 2021

Replacing the chain for the first time with this tool and mantels own how-to. The ze chain punch works fine once you get the hang of it, because you really shouldn't rely on the instructions. It is so unclear that it is better to throw it away immediately. Very nice that it comes with an iron hook, which you can immediately use as a chain tool. The iron cap is also handy, you use it to break off the pin (which is not mentioned in the user manual, for instance).

Pros & Cons

Chain tool included
No pliers needed to break off the shear pin
Very unclear description of use
