KMC X 9 Speed 116L Chain

everything went as planned

I have been cleaning and lubing the original chain on my mountain bike for many years now. After a season of neglect, the chain looked too rusty for rehab-ing so I purchased and installed the KMC X9.93. What an amazing difference! The peddling was so much more quiet and the shifting was crisp and quick. Why didn't I do this sooner?

After measuring and removing the extra links, this chain went on as easy as expected. It comes complete with a master link. I installed this on my road bike and I must say, I didn't realize quite how worn out my previous chain was. This one was much quieter and smoother than the old one. I will be reviewing a budget chain tool set soon, so be sure to follow me or check my profile later to read it.

KMC makes great chains, and this one is no exception! I am now running 5 of these on every bike in my house - 8s and 9s... Cut to size, install the link, and lightly lube! You won't go wrong with these chains! And the price is a bargain, especially because they shift as good as, if not better than some more expensive chains!

I have used and abused several of these on my enduro bike and I've easily gotten 1000 miles though rain, mud, dust and mashed up hills, I'm now on my third and the quality far exceeds the price.
