RyanRs Posted April 23, 2005 Report Share Posted April 23, 2005 So with this shadow half link chain, is it theoryedically(sp?) possible to run single speed on a bike with vertical dropouts (like std MTB dropouts -incase i got it wrong) ie. Zoo Pitball , without having to use a form of chain tension device, ie rear mech etc... Basically run it like you would on a BMX / MOD bike?? also, is it possible to use a half link in a KMC Kool chain? as i like the look of the KMC's If this is possible, it would be excellent, as you can do away with the rear mech, bout 3 links of chain length and a whole lot of hassle every time you bash your rear mech! Think of the weight saved! Ry (Y) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Urpedigreechumdog Posted April 23, 2005 Report Share Posted April 23, 2005 Yup, theoretically, but we'll have to see how it goes.... And i know 1/8" half links are widely available for use in a fat KMC Kool chain, but i'm not sure about 3/32" half links (they are out there, but where?).
