Hey guys,

Methinks I need a new chain, its looking rusty and it's been at least 5k miles (does that sound right?) Anyway, the $$ is tight these days, so I was wondering if you had a good recommendation of a brand/type/where to get it?

I know there are other threads on sprockets but I thought I'd throw that in

Thanks!

You should be able to get more than 5 thousand miles from a chain!?! Did you lube it regularly and adjust the tension?

 

[SoarAndEnvision]

Tension yes - I check that regularly.

UuHUh ...you said lube...uIhuHuh - but yeah no, I don't lube it as much as I should

Secretly I want an excuse to get one of those blingy gold ones ;D

 

[Royson]

Gotcha! I've got a gold chain on mine. It's a Regina. Bought it from Dennis Kirk.com, came in a set with sprockets and chain. Seems alright...

chains are supposed to last 20k miles, or so I've read.

Expected chain mileage will drop if your using bad sprockets though, and visa-versa. That's why they say to change the whole final drive at the same time. If your chain is a little rusty but still in decent shape, lubing it should bring some life back to it.
