The KMC 710 is great chain... cheap, strong, and bombproof.
And it looks good.
Unlike some of the bikes posted here.
Every time I see that Giant I throw up in my mouth just a little.

When people say a chain is "strong", I wonder what they mean?
Every chain I have ever used was strong.

frame looks too small for the rider, not enough seatpost showing. The double chainrings have just got to go, looks half assed to me. Take off both Raleigh USA logos, keep the technium. And for the love of God fix the front quick release.

I think 531 meant frame was too big. Don't like the saddle or pedals

A fist full of seat post and a level saddle to bar drop works if you like a French fit or if you are built like an orangutan.

Lemond: Bar angle is silly.
As for mine, good luck. It's obviously perfect.
