trialsbiker12345 Posted January 24, 2008 Report Share Posted January 24, 2008 I have been told that the best chain is a half link chain. Don't know if this is completely correct.Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil H Posted January 26, 2008 Report Share Posted January 26, 2008 DO NOT go anywhere near half link chains.KMC or KHE are the best options. Personally I run a KHE collapse and love it, it's properly strong and not as stiff as everyone makes out they are (in my experience), however alot of people favour the KMC. It's your choice at the end of the day but I would advise the KHE.Phil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
