i have a bunch of extras for my regular road bike and planned on using 'em for the tandem (both drivetrain and timing).
That what I'm using on the drive side currently and when I run out of 7700 chains for the timing side I plan on using the 7801 or 7900 chains.
My take on it is if it can handle the drive side where the power of 2 is being carried the timing side is only the captains power so not an issue.
I think this was mentioned last year on another thread.
