With the Shimano TL-CN42 chain gauge, the wear can be measured accurately. Simple and fast in a unique way. The gauge measures the chain length without gap between roller and pin by guiding the rollers in the same direction.

Features - Shimano TL-CN42

  • High precision laser cut construction
  • Unique 3-pin structure allows accurate measurement
  • Heat treated stainless steel

Usage

  • Check the wear of chains accurately, easily and quickly
Remark: A worn chain looses the original shifting performance and wears sprockets and chainrings faster!

Scope of delivery

  • 1 x Shimano Chain Wear Indicator TL-CN42


The gear that’s just as important as components: professional tools

Bikes are subjected to a wide variety different conditions so a high-level of maintenance is required to get the best performance out of each component. Moreover, high precision, usability and a unified design are very important elements for maintenance tools. That’s why we at SHIMANO are determined to continue creating high-performance maintenance tools. We will do everything possible to develop professional tools not just for SHIMANO products, but also for the maintenance of bikes in general. SHIMANO tools have an engineered shape to perfectly fit SHIMANO components. The serration dimension of the tools is designed to match the component shape including allowance.

Es tut, was es soll. Klein und fein. Eine gute Alternative zum Messschieber.

Average rating of 5 out of 5 stars

The best/most accurate chain checking tool for max. 0.5% elongation, which is the maximum recommended for 11 and 12 speed cassettes. For 10 speed cassettess, I have seen various recommendations, max. 0.5% is on the safe side, but max 0.75% is mentioned by Park Tool. Zero Friction Cycling made a review of many chain checker tools on 3 Feb 2024 (see Youtube), and this tool came out as one of the few ones that measure accurately. This is because it has a insert-two-pins system on on the 'starting side'. This tool can measure only 0.5% elongation, which is good for 11- and 12.speed chains. Park Tool recommends the following: 11-12 Speed: max 0.5%, 10-speed or less freewheel: max 0.75%, Single speed (1-speed): max 1%. The accurate tool is the Park Tool CC-4 (only this one), which can measure 0.5%, 0.75% (but not 1%). Also Pedro's chain checker was accurate. If you want to measure 1% for single speed, only the KMC Digital was accurate. Don't forget to measure the chain elongation at 2-3 places, as the chain elongation is not the same everywhere on the chain.
