Default Chains and Sprockets.

Before I splash out, any reason why I shouldn't buy an X ring as opposed to an O ring chain...example of X ring in the link...seems a reasonable price...

It looks beautiful and I haven't even had to adjust it yet in over 4000 miles, I also haven't looked after it as I should!

You can get them cheaper than that. I paid £100 quid for mine through the garage that serviced my bike.

Think I'be seen them on the bay for about £80ish?
