Recommendations for cheap singlespeed chain? The singlespeed specific chains appear to be 1/8 rather than 3/32 - do they run fine oin standard sprockets?

(it's for a tandem synch chain, but I figure singlespeed chain is what I want).

1/8 works fine on narrower sprockets

x2 for KMC BMX chain. Has the added benefit that you can get half links if you want to go for the ultra clean look
