• I'm pretty satisfied with it. weight was as low as claimed. since I used it only on my singlespeed build, it was strengthwise totally fine for my purpose. of course it has stretched a lil' but it still serves me well.

  • it has stretched a lil'

    actually mate actually i think you'll find actually actually what's happened actually is that the pins and bushings have actually worn, creating the illusion that the chain has stretched. this is something that i independently observed and NOT AT ALL something that i recently read on the internet and feel compelled to point out every time i see this COMMON MISCONCEPTION.

    the good news is that you're saving weight further by gently grinding precious molecules of steel off your chain parts.

  • of course, you're right. forces are not strong enough to actually "stretch" the plates of the links. one should rather speak of chain wear which is measurable with a chain wear indicator.
