I'm on the fence about it. Made in China, right? Where's KMC made these days?
What I want is a laterally stiffer, less-willing-to-shift 9s chain than what I had before.
I think I remember reading that S-Ride, Sensah, and the other Chinese brand whose name escapes me are all made by former SRAM folks who bought the tooling when SRAM decided not to be in China any longer. In other words, quality-on-par-with.
Would need to substantiate that, but I think I’m remembering correctly.
