As for longevity I do regular checks with a gauge and if the chain reaches 0.75% I toss it as chains are the cheapest element in the drive-train and the one that may cause the greatest power losses. That is usually in the 3000-3500km range. Oh, and yes, I've been using quick-link chains because they are very easy to install and far more reliable than pin-linked chains. | |
