The REI Member Dividend

The REI dividend is a unique benefit of membership in the REI co-op. It's comprised of your member refund—typically 10% back on eligible purchases—and/or your REI Visa® card rebates.

Each March, active REI members and REI Visa cardholders who earned a rebate receive a refund in the form of an annual dividend notice.

Only active members receive annual dividend notices. To maintain your active status as an REI member, you need to make net merchandise or shipping purchases of at least $10 per year, unless you joined that year. Member numbers are issued in one name and only that person receives the member refund. Your number can be used by others in your family, but it cannot be transferred to someone else.

Comments about SRAM PC991 Powerlink Chain - 9-Speed:

The PC-99X series of chains from SRAM are the best chains on the market if you bother to do your own maintenance. Why? Powerlink. I commute year-round. In Chicago. After a grimy ride home through the black snow and salt, I can clean the drivetrain in about 15 minutes.

HOWEVER, if you don't know how to work on your bike, take a class. Broken chains lead to crashes and long walks home.

Comments about SRAM PC991 Powerlink Chain - 9-Speed:

Not only does this chain look amazing, but the powerlink makes it wasy to remove and clean thoroughly. SRAM pays close attention to the details in producing durable, technically superior, and well designed products. Make the leap

Comments about SRAM PC991 Powerlink Chain - 9-Speed:

This was my first chain & cassette replacement, however I still don't think this chain is worth the extra.

I researched the chains, read as many articles as I could about replacing, and spent the extra money on this one for the ease of use with the "Powerlink".

It didn't go well........ I needed to remove a link to get the right length. Removing the link went fine, re-linking the chain was a nightmare. Despite several attempts the holes in the link and the pin weren't aligning properly. As a result the chain ran extremely rough and that link broke apart on a test ride - lost the pin.

Also, the Powerlink won't open for me despite a significant amount of repeated effort.

So I now have a broken chain that's going to cost me even more to fix.

Not happy.
