If i was racing the bike, by all means i hear where you're coming from, it's a no brainer, but i'm not, so if they're so dangerous why are links even be allowed to be sold?
Every link was checked over very carefully and it was just one link that was sticky, if it was more than one i would've have replaced the whole chain. Since i've done it, no more clunky feeling at all and it all feels and looks in good shape.
As long as they are fitted competently i really don't see an issue on a chain that isn't worn?
I'm one of the fussiest people going where my bike is concerned, and if i thought for one second i was putting myself in danger i simply wouldn't have done it.
In comparison to the chain belonging to Philshaq, which does sound knackered to me, my one is fairly new, but was open to very unusually extreme weather conditions, and even though i lubricated it regularly, one of the links obviously got missed, but fortunately i've clocked it early enough and dealt with it.
It really isn't a big deal in my opinion under my particular circumstances, and when i see some of the other bikes on the road i actually think my chain/bike is treated extremely well.

More people are born because of alcohol than will ever die from it.
