Oh subscribed. You got 'em with the chain lube thread but this one's gonna rack up responses. I can't help myself either
I just threw on some kmc 8 speed chain from my LBS bulk supply for $8, good enough for my 8 speed bike. On the mtb I did buy the fancy XT/Ultegra 11 speed chain for $30ish. Figured the extra coatings would help with the harsh environment my mtb is subjected to.
