Bike Chain

[RAD DYNO]

I'm ready to install the bike chain, I have KMC chain should I use it, or buy a new chain. What's a good chain, & what's a great chain!

Never heard of KCM chain, but a new chain would be a great chain. Any used chain would be a good chain as long as it's not stretched out and is the correct size. Gary

I've never had a problem with them. Seem ok. Maybe not a great chain, but they get the job done~~

KMC chains seem fine, I use them quite a bit. Value for money is good.

Kmc makes great chain, ran them for years.
In addition to regular chains they make armored chain for the bmx bikes.

I love kmc, and their product range is huge, with a wide spread of pricepoints, applications, and quality. The expensive/"high quality" chains tend to be for multispeed (10, 11speed) set-ups and lighter... even their cheapest chains are quality in terms of durability and tolerances.

My favorite for singlespeed and IGH set-ups is the kmc 410h-np. Old-school bushing construction is the difference; most manufactures have abandoned bushing chains, but I find them to be more user-friendly.
