As above,

After riding today and finding my drivetrain noisy i decided to whip my chain off and give it the petrol treatment, i noticed that on one of the outer plates was split, its a SHIMANO XT one so no wonder its split, ive never had an ounce of luck with one of their chains,

I'm looking at a SRAM chain can any one please reccomend a 10 Speed comaptible chain.

Thanks

Yup no worries, it'll last more than 300km unlike SRAM ones too

Or buy the kmc X10.93 for £17 for less bling but just as much durability. Not managed to snap one yet unlike SRAM/Shimano

I asked the same question earlier, road bike related but the chains are the same. [url= http://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/what-chain-road-content ]Thread here.[/url]

I'm going for a bling-a-ling gold one I think....!

The wife said she'd buy me a new chain for fathers day and jokingly added she'd get me a gold one so that's exactly what I'll get. She'll be horrified, as would I normally but I have to say I'm starting to quite like the idea. It's going to go on a very nice but very understated road bike so should look suitably odd.
