I was on the phone to Nelly when you posted this talking about a chain ... I forget exactly but I believe it was £69'ish for a Tsubaki bad boy (new type I just invented ;) ) so I'll be having that and changing the gearing to 14/39 :devil:

Dont forget you need a tsubaki special chain rivetter if you use their chain, as apposed to any std one for a DID chain.

DID is a centre punch type(spreading the inside outwards) where as the Tsubaki is like Renthal Afam and Regina it mushrooms the head over.

Robsom Racing do Talon sprockets. In fact they do everything.

Which one do you have?I have allways used DiD chains from bandc as i have a std splitter and fitter.

I understood that for whatever reason with the shape of tsubaki pins or links they needed their own equipment for fitting?

my brother in law is a bike mechanic so will drag him round with the right fitting gear. Always handy having someone close in the trade.

The smart owner would of fitted a new front sprocket along with their carrier and new rear to accomodate fitting a 520 chain.

I was advised to have a 525 by Harris, and along with the chain I also purchased a Renthal 38 rear and standard front. Nice little combination.

Have you ever had a DID break on you Andy ?

andyb

No. I know some did got a bad press a while back.
I have allways used the ERV2, as recommended by JHP.:D

andy they gave me an 108 link, way too long, dont know why so need to remove a few links. When I got the chain home un wrapped it only to find no link, they sent one a couple of days later though.

Much better to be too long that not enough. You can position the hub exactly right, cut the chain and away you go!
