LOL Yeah, I made my last post really late last night during a hazy, semi-lucid half awakening. i went back to bed and realized that a hacksaw might work fine for cutting through the side plates of an old chain you are going to remove from the bike and just throw in the trash. For a good chain that you are going to put on the bike, you want to disconnect a link(s). Cant have any half plates hanging on the end if you ever plan to reconnect it, I suppose. Also, I would not want to put a good chain in a vise to hold it while I sawed on it with a hack saw. got the point: I NEED A BREAKER.
Motionpro is a name I recognize from queries about other special tools for bikes.
Here's the Motion Pro. Looks like they make a few of these kinds of tools if you want to check the net.
