Does teflon coated make a difference?

Sram pc-1

I have a SRAM PC-1 and I like it a lot...it's nickel plated and quite strong.

SRAM PC-7X has got some very very positive reviews, you could try that one.

i have the sram pc-7x. so far so good. it's only my second chain so i don't know the difference at this point.

I'm a fan of the Charge Masher half link chain I'm running. So far so good...

I'm surprisingly fond of my KMC Z410. I know it's not considered a "good" chain by any means but mine is super quiet and has held up really well for nearly a year now. The Miche Pista chain on my Premium Brew is much noisier and doesn't feel as smooth.

I've tried just about every chain there is...and my conclusion is the KMC Z510HX (1 1/8") and KMC Z610HX (3/32") are the best chains for the money. They are cheap, very strong, last a lot longer then PC-1s or cheaper Z410 chains, and function basically as well as higher end track chains.

I have been running the PC-7X for a couple years. With all the hills here and me being 200 pounds, I can give it the Krusty Brand Seal of Approval.
