The chain you are looking at Dennis Kirk for comes in two lengths, 110 or 120 links. You need 112 links. A betterer place to buy this chain would be from fasteddy or Brent. The chain Eddy offers is a
RK 525XSO The chain being an x ring chain (all RK chains ending in XSO are x ring chains) does not need to be lubricated. That said the chain need lubrication.
To help keep it clean and to help keep the outsize of the seals pliable and lastly to keep the chain from rusting. The lube captured by the x-rings will never be touched by you. That is the only part that does not need lubrication. The rest of the chain does. Lube at least every 500 miles. Manufacturers recommend every 300 miles.
If you want a 99% maintenance free chain, install a
ScottOiler.
Now would someone explain what the difference is between the RK chains?
525XSO
vs
GB525XSO
That is what does 'GB' stand for?
