Just hoping I've managed to put enough pressure on the link rivets for it to hold, don't know if they're over far enough for my liking
Looks good to me, many over do it and can crack the head of the rivet. Measure the diameter of the flared end
Recommended flared diameter of the rivet for a 530VX chain is between 5.7mm - 6mm :thumbup

Cheers :thumbup
Hard to measure as I don't have one of those fancy measuring tools and was pretty hard to hold a tape against it and take a pic but I reckon there between 5.5mm and 6mm, the dreaded first run will be interesting :lol I best remember and take a spare change of underpants with me :lol
