Hi

I'm looking at a new chain and sprocket I can get a x-ring
Gold off e-bay for £83 with sprockets witch is a DID. Was wondering if that is a good make or what would be a good save bet. With out going over £100 for a chain and sprocket set, I also will be doing a few track days coming up so need a fairly robust set any advice is appreciated

I have that set of chain and sprockets on my curvy. Got a Scotoiler set up with them and it all seems pretty good with no undue stretch of the chain going on. I'm not the gentlest of riders either....

Mines got a DID X ring and no problems here, all sorts of riding, incl a track day last month

Don't forget that DID have at least 3 grades of SV chain on sale from the bargain £60-80 to the £80-100 mid range and OEM equivalent £130 sets. (EBAY X ring gold prices).
You get what you pay for with chains - the DID web site shows a mileage difference between the types
