Campy 5.9 mm chains and master link closure

Chris M said:

I've got my first Ultra Narrow (5.9 mm) chain and I want to know if
the 6.2 or 6.1 mm Connex master links will work with it. If not, are
there any master links that are installed without tools (as the Connex
are) that work as well as the OEM closure system? It's hard to
believe the drivetrain can get any quieter but I want to give it a
shot. It should make front derailleur trim easier if nothing else.

TIA

There is a 6.0 mm connex link that work with a Shimano 10 speed chain
and a Campy Ultra Narrow chain. Both chains are 5.9 mm.

Connex "Shimano 10-speed" link is working well for me with Ultra Narrow
chain. Peter@vecchios has said the same thing - and that's where I got the
tip from. Thanks to Peter for that.

And the older, wider, Connex 10 link works fine in 5.9 chain with
Campy cogs. The chain doesn't fall apart. The Connex 5.9 link is a
snug fit.
