Favoriate Trail:Tsali
Duration Product Used:6 months
Price Paid: $19.00
Purchased At:LBS
Strengths:Strong, The star-punched pins have not failed me. Michigan springs and winters can trash a drivetrain.
Like the master link.
Weaknesses:Master link not reusable. At least in theory
Similar Products Used:A variety of Shimano junk. Sedis/Sachs
Bike Setup:XT
Bottom Line:Has not let me down like Shimano (with same mileage and care). Use w/ Pro-link chain lube!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Favoriate Trail:
mansfeild
Duration Product Used:
6 months
Strengths:
VERY VERY VERY strong
Weaknesses:
too strong!
Similar Products Used:
shimano, various others
Bike Setup:
marin 5inch with xt blackspire cranks
Bottom Line:this chain is really really strong, too strong, because it does not flex and makes shifting a little trickey, and it wears away at your drive train.
great quality, but a little heavey
very overbuilt.
i use a 8 speed drive train, so im not sure how the 9 speed chain is.
Overall Rating:4
