Connex link causing drivetrain noise? (lemmy.ca)

I just installed a Connex link to join a KMC X9 chain and I'm noticing that whenever the link goes through the derailleur hanger, it causes it to move a bit, which causes rhythmic noise. Anyone using Connex noticing this? Is it normal?

Yup, waxed. I think it's just wax collection in that particular joint. I'll loosen it up and report.
