I haven't tried it. I usually scour www.bikebandit.com and www.rockymountainatvmc.com for sale prices on either RK or DID. I've scored a few in the $15 to $20 range.

I'm with Weld on the cheap chains, but Spud had linked chain a couple times on a few threads, so ask him to link to that one. It is an O-ring chain that he recommends.

I also like O-ring, drive chains. However, I would recommend one of the following drive chains, instead of the one you listed.

The KMC 428U0 drive chain works well, and is reasonably priced. You can get this drive chain from eBay, or from OEMCycle.com.

However, for a little more money, I have discovered the DID 428VX will last probably last at least twice as long as the KMC drive chain.
