Izumi 1/2 × 1/8 ES410GP 116 Link Single Speed Chain, Gold

I was dumb and grinded my 290lb frame up a steep hill with a 53t-19t. Rims and spokes survived, AND THIS CHAIN, but the axel on my brand new Dura ace hubs did not. I see no reason to dump the money on the more expensive version of this chain, since I’m proof these things are strong af.

The GOODS: super smooth when you get tension right. Looks great on the bike and easy to clean.The BADS: Noisy (First World problems amirite?!). Even after about 100miles in, the chain is still noisy. It also had some flaking to it too which seems to be normal. It comes with one master link spring clip. Perhaps buy a couple to match the color you get. My clip flew off on the first ride and the chain came undone....I've been riding bikes/motorcycles and this was the first time that's ever happened.

Looks great. Easy install. Unexpectedly has a lot of drivetrain noise. Did some reading and this is pretty normal for IZUMI. I was expecting a fairly silent drivetrain like the KMC I took off the bike, but 100+ miles in and it's still noisy. So just know what to expect. If you want a silent fixed gear drive, go with KMC or DID. Still a great chain, just didn't expect.the noise.

Easy to install once you get it to the needed length. Make sure you have a good chain/link breaker, I broke one while getting it to size!

It feels high quality and smooth. Better than kmc chains I've used. The black/gold is understated.

The media could not be loaded.  Best chain for the price

perfect chain. very pleased.

Very nice chain. Strong and looks good on the bike too. This is the second Izumi chain I ordered after I wore the first one out. Recommended to anyone riding a single geared bike.

Świetnie wygląda, bardzo ładny
