a SS chain, that is. i'm interested in trying the Shadow chain, but $30 seems kinda high, given the price of other chains in the 3/32, 1/8 niche. so what are some other chains that i should look at? i'll be wrapped around a King Kog and e13 sprocket.
buy my standard bmx chain 1/8"
$10 shipped
I had it around a 39t sprocket on a medium chainstay 26er" so it should work.
I used it maybe one or two months, switched out of hardtails and singlespeeds.
What do you want in the chain? Strength? or maybe really smooth running? I guess for strength, any decent bmx chain. I agree that $30 is a little much for the Shadow chain, when other decent chains are like half that. Does Wipperman make a singlespeed chain? I've always heard good things about their stuff, but I doubt it would be as strong as a thick bmx chain.
Wipperman makes the best chains ever! hands down. it is pretty much the chain of choice for all of the top track racers. and the only chain I will ever rock on my fixed gear road bike as I know that it will not break.....
I have broken just about every other brand and I cannot seem to break my Wipperman.....
BTW the amount of power that the top track racers are throwing down is pretty much a strong indicator of which chain to trust!
