Ash-Kennard Posted January 13, 2006 Report Share Posted January 13, 2006 it's fine, but you will have to make sure it fits between your chainring and your bash ring Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jez Posted January 13, 2006 Report Share Posted January 13, 2006 it's fine, but you will have to make sure it fits between your chainring and your bash ringI'd say a BMX chain is better - thicker, heftier, less likely to snap at the top of an 8ft drop...I've broken lots of MTB chains in my time, and only a few BMX chains (which were due to a really BAD chain-line problem) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Houseface Posted January 14, 2006 Report Share Posted January 14, 2006 bmx chain will better cause they are stronger but heavier steve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trials Boy Posted January 14, 2006 Report Share Posted January 14, 2006 (edited) If you think about it nearly everyone uses a KMC chain...and thats a bmx chain, but i dont see anyone use a shadow chain? KMC's do the job though Edited January 14, 2006 by Trials Boy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
