For general riding and some longer events too......
Used KMC BMX chains before and although fine maybe a bit overkill?
was looking at this.... [url= http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=31548 ]sram pc7x chain[/url]
your thoughts? or any other recommendations around the £15 mark?
thanks in advance.

J sent you a reply ref King cog sorry for the delay
kmc 610 (3/32) or 510 (1/8)
£8.99 at Wiggle and comes with a missing link.
A couple of SRAM chains disintegrated when I used them SS. Maybe a bad batch, but it's not worth risking gonads to find out if they've improved.
Never had a problem with KMC 610HX.
Epicyclo, I had a couple of rollers disintegrate on a couple of chains myself but I'd put it down to a dodgy bearing in my WI freewheel!
I'm still on a Connex Wippermann 3/32 chain that I got in the CRC Flood sale (remember that?). In fact I've got a spare so I'm well happy should I ever need it. That's at least 18 months of use and probably more. When you consider that I'm a bit hefty and strong and snap about 3 9-speed chains a year on my hardtail I'm well impressed with the Connex.
thanks guys, think the kmc 610 has it!
+1 for the kmc610 (well +3 actually as i run then on 3 bikes)
