A track chain member may comprise a shoe member, and a first rail member extending from the shoe member. The first rail member may include a first lug defining a first bore defining a first longitudinal axis and including a first bushing retention shelf disposed in the first bore, a second lug including a second bushing retention shelf disposed in the second bore. A third lug may extend in a direction opposite that of the first lug and second lug and may be disposed axially between the first lug and the second lug.

A method of configuring a connection member. The connection member comprises a first end, a second end, and an intermediate portion between said ends. Each end comprises respective first and second insertion regions. In the operative state, first and second curved sections are arranged on opposite sides of each of the first and second ends. The first and second ends are movable to be arranged in the vicinity of each other, and abut against each other, and thereby form a lock over the intermediate portion. The connection member may be a loop formed of a flexible material or a flexible elongated body having a first end and a second end, separated by an intermediate portion and comprising at each end respective first and second insertion regions. The connection member may be formed from a rope having first and second ends formed by braiding or other technique.

A bicycling multi-tool with a quicklink removal tool is disclosed. The quicklink tool includes a body having a first prong integral with the body and protruding in a first direction, and a first aperture proximate the first prong. The quicklink removal tool also includes a floating prong base having a second prong integral with the floating prong base and protruding in the first direction. The floating prong base includes a second aperture and a sliding face, and is slideably coupled to the body through a bolt passing through both the first aperture and the second aperture. The bolt is threadedly coupled to at least one of the first aperture and the second aperture. The face of the floating prong base is positioned proximate to and facing a sliding surface of the body. Turning the bolt drives the floating prong towards and away from the first prong.

A chain tool for disassembling a chain buckle connecting two ends of a chain includes a body having a contact portion curved along a linear direction conforming to the shape of a roller of the chain buckle, and an impact portion located oppositely, a blocking portion is formed on at least one of two opposite sides of the body relevant to the contact portion, each blocking portion and the contact portion extend in parallel to each other, and a groove is formed between the contact portion and each blocking portion; while the invention is in use, the contact portion abuts with the roller at an end of the chain-connecting tool, the blocking portion blocks a link plate at a side of the chain buckle, a user hits against the impact portion for displacing the link plates thereby disassembling the chain buckle, and then the grooves receive the displaced link plates.

A chain tool with a main body having a first body portion and a second body portion. A driving mechanism is supported by the first body portion and movable toward and away from the second body portion. The driving mechanism includes a first driving member adapted to retain one of a pair of plates of a chain and a second driving member adapted to drive a pin through the pair of plates. A stopper adapted to stop the pin selectively connected with the second body portion between a first and a second connection way. The second body portion has a slot for connecting the stopper. In the first connection way, the stopper includes a first end inserted in the slot. In the second connection way the stopper includes a second end inserted in the slot.
