    I seem to have the weakest thumbs in the universe, so cant use the SRAM type chain joiners, so I am looking for a chain with the more traditional link.

    1/8"

    Shiny if possible.

    What do you recommend?

    Thanks

    if they are clean they should just slide between thumb and finger. – dead easy

    roll the actually link in one hand rather than trying to squash the adjoining links inwards towards the splitter.

    if that makes sense?

    in that case, what single speed chain is currently the one to have?

    thanks

    I rate SRAM PC1 nickel plated jobs

    I hate KMC510 chains – made of rubber I think the amount they stretch each ride.

    oh, and the connector link jobs – sooo easy to split. can be a bit trickier after a lot of wear, but a wiggle at the same time as trying to seperate works wonders.

    Just got a linky thing and fitted last night. It's my new favourite thing, and the best way to spend 2 quid I have ever come across. Genius. Of course if it goes wrong when I go out for a ride tonight it will henceforth be sh!t and officially the worst thing EVER. Firm but fair, that's my motto.
