I got a KMC on one bike a Miche Pista chain on the bianchi. Honestly I can't tell the difference on my commute but I haven't worn either out, so I'll check back here when one wears out.

Have any of you tried a gusset chain? I kind of just brushed them off as a cheap chain and I don't know much about them so I didn't have any confidence in the brand. Their half link chains look a little funky (not the good kind) but honestly what would I know...

Your opinions would be greatly appreciated.

I had a Gusset Slink on my BMX and it sucked, it stretched really easily. Don't get it.

sram pc-890

i have been using them since the original sachs originally came out with it (sram bought sachs) they last a very long time, are quiet, and look great. they shift well too (not that it manners here)

i just ordered a new one today.
