[#4513279]

Just ordered a KMC z510 (1/8") as it's cheep and golden, someone just told me to order a z610 (same chain but 3/32").

Any reason to go one way or the other?

What thickness are your cog and chainring?
3/32 you can use either chain (1/8th will be noisier a bit anyway) if 1/8th then you can only use 1/8th Chain

3/32" is lighter and runs *slightly* better if you are running 3/32" sprockets.

On-One stainless chainring (1/8 or 3/32) and groove armada sprocket (3/32).

I'll order a 3/32 then and put the spare on the BMX (which needs a new one anyway).
