Gusset Slink Chrome Plated Chain

On a Fixed-wheel bike, in comparison to a standard 3/32in chain, the Slink chain feels smoother and allows easy adjustment of chain tension. It looks good too! The inner chain plates are cut away, allowing them to wrap tighter around smaller sprockets (down to an eight-tooth cog). To keep weight to a minimum, each plate of the Slink is slotted – 360g for 96 links (the equivalent of around 48 standard). Chain half links have cranked plates that link a regular outer link to an inner. They’re usually used to get the chain length right on fixies and singlespeeds, replacing one of the regular links. A half link chain is what it says, each link is a half-link. BMXers have been using full length half link chains for years because they’re said to be stronger. We suspect their unusual looks has more to do with it, though. Gusset Slink Chrome Plated Chain Features Each link overlaps the next, combined with square riveted pins, reduces risk of chain breakage (falling apart). Grind friendly straight outer plate edges, avoid getting hung up. Cutaway inner plate edges give improved sprocket wrap, allowing perfect running down to 8 teeth sprockets. Slotted plates, reduce excess weight. SCM steel with Carburized Nitrogen heat treatment provides breaking strength of 1300Kgf. (Std chain is approx 850 Kgf)
