Review: You could get a better known brand but no need. This basically has 3 readers on it. Your chain stretches and when it does it slowly starts to damage your cassette. All you do with this is put the bottom end in a chain link on the bike and rest the other end on the chain. If none of the prongs go in it isn’t stretched at all. If the first prong goes in this means the chain has stretched .5%. If you have high end 11 or 12 speed drivetrains you may want to think about changing the chain now. .75 is the next prong and this is where most chains should be changed. 1 and it has gone too far and change ASAP. I was surprised to see my mountain bike chain had gone to 1- not good on an 11 speed GX so ordered a new chain immediately. My newish Eagle on my EMTB was still at zero stretch. Those Eagle chains are tougher. I’m a big fan of Park tools but seriously no need to spend that money on a simple tool like this. If you do need to change the chain, I would however recommend the Park Tools chain breaker (the 3.2 version is a bit cheaper and works great on 12 speed chains also, despite it being marketed as 11 speed) and Park Tools chain pliers- both essential tools for changing chains quickly.
