Fixed Pants™ Posted February 7, 2007 Report Share Posted February 7, 2007 Poor chainline might be the cause. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve@banbury-trials Posted February 8, 2007 Report Share Posted February 8, 2007 what chains have you broke mate?in my experiance chains tend to break when the chainline isn't right or there simply not strong enough . i've been running a khe collapse chain for 6 months without a single snap ,so i highly recommend it steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
