Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Hi 53,
Haven't explored that option yet as I am very early into the life of the KMC X-10 chain that came stock on my bike. I am pretty vigilant about driveline maintenance so should get a good measure of wear from that chain. Reviews of the KMC chain are mixed...kind of like anything bike related...some love them others think they are junk. Overall I am pleased with the chain however may try another chain mfr. in the future when its time for replacement.
Cheers,
George

Have you been talking to my FBS mechanic? I just got "yelled at" for how dirty my bike was.
