Dr. Nick Riviera Posted March 29, 2006 Report Share Posted March 29, 2006 most/all chains will fit that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke Rainbird Posted March 29, 2006 Report Share Posted March 29, 2006 Now here's an idea:Buy a standard chain, as you are running standard kitPut it on to see how long it needs to beTake out as many links as requiredNow then, was that hard?

Seriously mate, just buy a chain (recommend the KMC Kool Chain personally) and stick it on. Take out however many links are necessary until it's the right length, and you're done. It really is just put on and adjust.... Edited April 20, 2008 by Monkey Boy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cvtrial Posted March 29, 2006 Report Share Posted March 29, 2006 I think all chains will fit, but buy a KMC Kool works fine, and buy a chaincutter so you can cut your chain as long as you want it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke Rainbird Posted March 29, 2006 Report Share Posted March 29, 2006 Only thing I would add is that if you are browsing any BMX shops whilst looking, be sure to buy a 1/8 chain rather than a 3/16 chain. I won't go into too much now, but this is the only real size difference with chains.If you're going singlespeed though I would go for the KMC, many people use them, very few have problems.Luke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can handle a decent force 1300/1400(correct me if im wrong) i think. A chain snapping can be a very painful experience. get a KMC chain and it is less likely to happen!From Lee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
