315r Posted June 25, 2009 Report Share Posted June 25, 2009 Hello.My original chain in my yaabaa 1499 is death...I'm thinking to purchase a best one, at least that this new chain will be more longstanding....I think that my actual one is KMC try-all : http://www.al4bikes.com/b2c/pop_mas_imagen...1.jpg&act=2I'm thinking now in KHE Collapse.What do you think about that?Other options?Thank you!!!!

weirdoku Posted June 25, 2009 Report Share Posted June 25, 2009 I use a KHE Collapse. And I haven't worried about my chain snapping since I had it. I don't know the strength of that try all chain but it does't look as strong as the collapse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can feel it more heavy than others?At least my favourite one nowadays is collapse.Is compatible My freewhell with collapse?I don't worry about weight that much, I certainly would not get a light chain that's not as strong over a slightly heavier chain but much smuch stronger.I'm sure it won't be a problem on any freewheel. I'll be more worried if you have a thin or wide rear sprocket. Since the chain is slightly wider than normal it might rub against your spokes or snail cams (I think your frame uses snail cams..). I use a collapse on a mod and it literally just clears my snail cams by 1mm. Edited June 25, 2009 by weirdoku Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weirdoku Posted June 25, 2009 Report Share Posted June 25, 2009 The widest part of this chain is the pins, which are about 10mm wide. If that's wider than the current chain you are running, a collapse might rub against your spokes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

weirdoku Posted June 25, 2009 Report Share Posted June 25, 2009 If you get this, you should clear the spokes. The teeths are to one side, I'm using a 12T one and it clears my spokes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should be fine with this one, but as with all chains you should chain them in a few months time though, I have seen these snap and I snapped one myself (3/32 size one). I don't think it will rub against your spokes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Y) I hope this new one fits well, in the web of the shop the description said: """"Reinforced KMC for freewheel 108,9 Try-all."""""http://www.al4bikes.com/b2c/index.php?page...ef=tb6301000000I contacted with shop and said that this one fits well in yaabaas...Anyway, I will write here my experience with this one in one week.Thank you again!!!
