CHAINS

The chain is the part that transfers the power from the pedals to the rear wheel. It’s a critical component that must be frequently inspected and lubricated, since it’s exposed to large loads, hits, rusting and mechanical wear. All chains on our website have a 1/2" pitch.

Key points:

· Link type: there are half link chains (all links are identical) and normal link chains (with male-female link connections).

· Link width: usually, 3/32” or 1/8”. This width must always be bigger than or equal to the sprocket’s teeth.
