I was mooching about in a large Wilko today, boring stuff coathangers and pegs.
I did find the bike stuff, had cables from them before, cheapish inner tubes. They seem to have there own branded stuff now, bike cleaners, lubes, tubes, tools nic nacks, and chains.
Never seen chains in Wilko before, started at £2-3 for a 1-3speed, i slyly opened the pack to have a look and the links where stamped TAVA and it had a quick clip link to join it, no other names, just made in Taiwan for Wilko in small print.
Also had 5-8spd think that was £3.50 and a 9 speed around £4.50
I didn't open them up and have a peek as the first 9spd pack had been opened, chain nicked and pack put back on the shelf and i didn't want to get accused of nicking it.
Anyone tried them ? worth a punt ? or a bit too cheap, don't fancy popping a knee.
