Hi !


I am racing some amateur 4x and don't know which chain should I choose.
I've heard that Campagnolo is much more durable than Sram - but won't it break within one (or two) seasons? Is it strong enough for gate starts?

Or did anyone ride on Wipperman Connex 904 (or 900, 908)? Any feedback?

Thanks for any advice

No experience with Campy 9S chains, but SRAM chains have treated me well (better than Shimano) - never had one snap, and I put out a lot of wattage all at once. Breaking chains usually comes down to mechanical/rider error, though...or just a worn out chain. I replace chains on my bikes at LEAST once a season...they're disposable and wear out. A chain wear gauge is a wonderful tool.
