KMC Missing link or other?

In an effort to keep the bike going for a good while I finally had a chance to remove the chain and give it a good soak and clean. Unfortunately I lost one half of my KMC missing link.


I stopped by REI today, the only place that is within reasonable walking distance from work (24th and Sidney St) and they did not have any. I live in Shaler and hated the drive in today and want to drive as little as possible to get a replacement or a better link. What do I get and where do I go? Shimano 10spd 105 chain.

Thick, on 15th?


Ted's Excellent Bike Repair, 22nd and Carson?


Prob. worth calling first, in either case.

Definitely Thick. I needed extra links, sure enough they had some in a drawer.

Based on timing and parking I went to Performance. First time there and they had a Wipperman Connex that did the trick. I feel bad I wasn't able to buy anything from Ted though, I forgot all about him when I made my efforts to buy stuff from every local shop.
