Thanks!

Amazon, no tax (at least for now) and free 2 day prime shipping. Awesome...
I guess I am too thrifty, I would use the KMC Z30/Z33, $4.50 at Niagara.

You are still getting a narrow chain, just not as narrow as 10 speed.


I keep Z33 and Z50 chains on hand, as I go through a lot of them. The Z30/Z33 cost $4.57 at Niagara (for 5 and 6 speed bikes), and the Z50 cost $5.60. Most of what I work on is either 6 speed or 7 speed.


But I do not buy bike parts on Amazon.
