mattroch on June 30, 2024 5:36 am I’m a sram guy, but I run shimano chains and haven’t had an issue. I like snapping the pin the best.
Key_Run4313 on June 30, 2024 6:40 am how many speeds – 1×11? 1×12? This is why sane engineers invented 2×8.
Old-Replacement8242 on June 30, 2024 6:41 am Was that chain on the broken cassette? I wonder if there was hidden damage when the cassette broke and it finally came apart.
Alive-Bid9086 on June 30, 2024 7:02 am Many broken chains in the sub now. Is it really that common? Or is it a new thing?
