Motion Pro 08-0470 PBR Chain Breaker

This was an older style unit (package said 2013) the older versions of this tool had production issues. I inspected the unit, and found internal components to be damaged, one part missing. I suspect this unit was used and returned, then repackaged.

Used this on my KLR 650, a a few of my riding buddies bikes. It’s bomber.

Worked great and had a set of easy to read instructions. Whole chain job took less than 20 minutes thanks to this tool.

In trying to press the rivet in place on the chain, I bent the little screw in leverage handle. Works fine for what it is, but you have to put a ton of force into the rivet though.

Great tool easy to use, well made.

Exactly what I needed. Excellent tool and quality.

Great tool, very easy to use and very well made.

Posting for the benefit of adventure riders who might consider packing this tool for an extended ride including off-road. Note, its quite heavy. Dont have an exact weight but its significant and too heavy for my purposes. One website puts the weight at 3.2 pounds, which is probably in the ballpark. Im gearing up for a months-long ride through Africa and Asia and its more weight than Im willing to carry. I count grams pretty zealously for a ride like this, so take that into account. Otherwise, the tool seemed great. Sturdy and appears well designed. Though I returned it, Im giving five stars based on impressions and my experience with other MotionPro products. Ill pack the much lighter, though less functional, Motion Pro 08-001 Chain Breaker, which Ive had good experiences in the past.

Amazing. Absolutely amazing. The only tool you need to break a chain press a master link and peen a rivet. Cannot recommend highly enough. Very well thought out and designed.

This tool makes breaking a chain and installing a new master link very easy.
