I did that, my first time... Then realised it means you can't use the old chain and link to pop through the new chain, and pull it through onto the sprocket etc (does make life easier). Also, time with the angle grinder is much reduced, and the pin really easy to push out, once the head is gone - probably much the same time needed between the 2 methods of breaking the chain.
As an aside, the 1st mot after I'd cut the chain off, the guy spotted loads of metal filings around the rear hub, said he'd fail it if he could see where they were coming from :rollin :rollin
