SHM-8 Interchangeable Insert pin for the Chainlift Bicycle Tool.

**Works with rare older 6mm hex Shimano and Campagnolo Derailleurs

For example, I’m no longer lubing the chain with my bike attached to the trainer. Nope - I use Chainlift to easily get the bike off the trainer and on a repair stand, where I can lube the chain without reinstalling the rear wheel first, or spraying lube on the trainer’s flywheel. Now I lube the chain more frequently when riding indoors, which is definitely good for my drivetrain components.

I’ve also found myself removing the rear wheel more often for a more thorough cleaning of my frame, rear derailleur, and the cassette, and to better inspect the frame for potential signs of damage and my disc brake pads for signs of significant wear.

These examples might seem trivial, but they’re not. By taking better care of my bike, I’m extending both its useful life and that of its components - which will save me a lot of money (and frustration) in the long run. Chainlift will definitely pay for itself.

I’m pretty confident in the construction and choice of materials used on Chainlift. The price is merely a reflection of the economy of scale; a behemoth like Shimano could perhaps offer a similar product cheaper, but a small outfit like Chainlift cannot. They certainly make up for that with outstanding customer service, though.

All told, I would strongly encourage you to order one for yourself. You will agree it is totally worth it. And you will be supporting the kind of small company that inevitably ends up bringing more great products into our cycling lives.

Simple and effective

Like having a second pair of hands when removing the back wheel, definitely recommended especially if you have an expensive frame which you want to protect from chain contact.

Takes some practice

The concept is super amazing and I think with a bit of practice it could be the new go to tool. I would just caution, don’t expect to pull it out and get it right the first…or third time. Watch the videos on the site because they do actually help. Additionally (and maybe we just didn’t see it annotated) all the different sized accessories are conveniently stashed in the elbow (light grey piece). We initially thought we were missing parts. That took about 15 minutes of figuring out.
Overall, I feel confident with more practice I’ll like it 5 stars. It does what they profess and it is handy!

Works great!

Must watch the videos to learn how to use it, but once you learn this is the tool you'll be glad to have in your toolbox!

Very helpful

This has been a huge help to me as I do not have a spot where I can leave my trainer set up in the house. Set-up and take-down are far easier now. I haven't used it for cleaning yet, but I anticipate it will also be a massive improvement.
