Review on πŸ”₯ High-Performance KMCA0 X10SL DLC Black-RED 116L Chain: Superior Durability and Style by Matthew Guiney

Revainrating 5 out of 5

If you are a cyclist you must consider this chain.

My bike came with a bare KMC chain as part of the original equipment. She has served me well. I have Sram Power/Rival components so I replaced the chain with a Sram chain. I never paid attention, it should be less prone to stretching, have a longer lifespan, so it added a bit of weight. Better service: light weight, so a kind of exchange. The usability was about the same. About 2000 miles per chain. I installed DLC KMC X10SL. What is the difference with Sram. Shift quieter, faster, smoother. I noticed a difference when I installed it and tuned/adjusted the drive chain. I didn't give much importance to the need for adjustment between chains. Now it will be KMC! I find this chain makes it quieter and smoother than the stock chain. I will update this to reflect wear and tear and serviceability
