chain snapped other night on my io it had a half link chain on it ! Would you say use another half link ?

I use whatever charlie has in at the time.

SRAM PC-1.

Cheap as chips and tough as old boots.

(waits for someone to argue the point…. cue stories of mangled knackers and other carnage…)

KMC Z510 – cheap and dependable and it's gold 😉

Yeah SRAM PC-1. I've tried a couple of KMC chains, perhaps I was unlucky as I wasnt impressed with either, went back to SRAM again after.

Never had a problem with the KMC chains…currently have a Ti-nitride one which is pretty bling (when it's clean) and seems to run dead smooth although i'm sure it's not really any better than the much cheaper Z510.

KMC Z610HX here – they've never given me any trouble. (that's me jinxed for this weekend then :roll:)

Anything. it's just a chain. Whatever fits your sprockets

Any old chain seems to work for me .It has less work to do than with gears so i'm not to bothered about quality

KMC Z flavour will do the job fine.

Z610. They're the stoats scrote.

KMC good, SRAM bad. Only tried one of each tho'.

Sram PC89 or KMC 610HX in 3/32". The Sram is a lot lighter if that floats your boat.

Got a cheap Taya from Halfrauds. Works a treat.

XTR.

Seriously – ace.
