Someone here said they emailed odyssey and odyssey said that the key chain would be out before Christmas.. Christmas is in one and a half weeks and still no key chain.. This really disappointed me.. I was sopost to get it cuz I hate my half link.. Well as long as it comes out soon , but does anyone else know when the chains coming out .

It's kmc that's all I know.. I'll end up grieving it to my friend.. He snaps so many chains that he has to buy me from Walmart now.. Half links hold up better for some people. ,aye this one will last more then 2 or 3 months for him.

Kmc 510s are the way to go if your not into half links......I remember back in the day the giant chains kmc made......those things probably wouldn't fit most frames today

What about KMC Kool chains? The one i have is perfection. I have one from my Haro too that actually never broke. It's been going great since 2005 and was in the rain for weeks at a time and is still being ridden.

I don't think the whisper man would fit.. The first couple times he snapped his chain was because.. Wait for it.. Free agent forgot to put a bearing in his huh.. Then he bent his sprocket and then he bent it again and then he just snapped it.. And then he just snapped it again..

Depends what Gearing He's running? I mean I KNOW the will NOT fit 25/9. They don't fit 9t Drivers AT ALL! 10/11t Driver & He's all set! What makes me laugh is the easy link thing, meaning You need no tools to install it.... Soooooooo, What happens if you don't have the "Correct" Sized Gearing?! How do you get links out of that BEAST of a Chain haha! Motor Cycle Chain Breaker?!

That's probably his problem, I used to buy cheap chains because I always broke them and then I got a good quality chain and it's lasted me ages.

I used the Shadow chain breaker to shorten mine for install, but it only worked three times before it broke. When extended, the pins are foo large to fit through the cut out, so it was a little tight getting it back out. And the master link has the standard type snap clip you gotta slide sideways to lock or unlock, so I'm not sure who doesn't need some sort of needle nose or other tool to install/remove it.
This is a 10t driver.

And then 28t up front, but I may go with a 30 if it will fit. I liked the 28/9 gearing better.

if you did snap it, holy shit, what did you do to break it?

Haha, yeah, I'll edit that. I had to shorten it, and the shadow interlock was the only breaker I had. This thing hasn't even stretched, at least not noticeably. And that link is cheap, I think I paid 69 before shipping. Seriously the best purchase I've made though. I don't even think about my chain separating under load anymore.
