Need a good quality chain for a 14 speed....what do you guys recommend?

I am replacing my chain at the same time I upgrade my freewheel.

My question is what are my choices for a 14 speed double.

I don't mind paying extra money for a more durable chain....it's money well spent.

Also can I get a chain that can be removed from the bike during cleaning?

An SRAM PC58 would do the trick also. KMC's are another good choice. Just stay away from Shimano's though. Good chain but piss poor enginnering from a removal/reinstallation standpoint.

That's what sheldon brown recommends on their website....I think I'll go with that as it only costs $17.
