I got the best chain I could afford, plus the best one for my Raptor....which coincidentally was gold.
DIDxsvm or something

I don't like renthal sprockets. So, much so I had my sprocket carrier skimmed to carry a steel Busa one, on the Raptor

I'd say go with what you fancy Quiff, I ended up with one by just asking my tyre guy to fit me a chain and sprockets and he got one. I was a little worried but I quite liked it in the end.
Red and gold would look pretty cool.
