Chains wear out. Most chain manufacturers also sell clip links. Is there any seasoned riders here with a sport or cruiser (no dirtbikes) who's racked up the k's on a clip link? Tires and Chains are the wear points. Using a clip link eliminates the need for an over priced tool or paying a shop.
Use a rivet link and be safe. Often only the lower spec chains have clip links available.

I have been riding since the sixties and racing since the seventies and have never used a rivet link, and never had a problem.
It is easy to trust the link, the problem comes from the installation.
Do you use silicon, safety wire, or something else?
If using clip link, why not use safety wire AND a clip link? The extra 5 minutes of trouble is worth the peace of mind isn't it?
