Submitted by mcanderson0 a Weekend Warrior from Houston, TX

Date Reviewed: April 26, 2011

Strengths:    Never had to worry or think about this chain. It simply worked for 2 years without issues

Weaknesses:    None

Bottom Line:   
This chain was installed by my LBS over 2 years ago and it just started making noise and such. I checked the length and it has stretched a bit. I plan to replace with another PC-8XX series chain since they are all priced similarly.
