pin diameter, roller inner diameter, and pin width must all be considered .... I would not suggest mixing them.....
ever seen what a broken chain will do to your bike (or leg) when it whips off and smashes and wraps into everything?
Broken leg and / or broken cases is often the result of a chain failure.

cool, was just wondering, i have local access to a diff brand x ring masterlink and hate having to order shyt and wait! but it is better to wait than have a crushed shin from a chain wrapping around ur leg, buddy of mine had it happen to him, rev'd at about 7k, launched and *snap* chain broke and wrapped around his leg....needless to say after the operation he still walks with a limp.
