Hullo all,<br>I'm looking for a little advice on chains before I go and throw a wad of cash at something that may or may not do the job.<br>I'm looking at a new chain for my genisis my options are DID or RK, we can't get Tsubaki in my country any more.<br>So it's either RK 530 XSO or 530GXW the more expensive one<br>or DID 530VM or 530ZVM which is the more expensive one.<br>What I'd like to know is has anyone tried any of these or both and what chain seems to perform better,I don't mind paying for the more expensive chains - but are they worth the extra cash?Any feedback would be great.<br>Fzrnut<!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :hat --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/pimp.gif ALT=":hat"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <p></p><i></i>

I would opt for the cheaper and replace more often. Does that make any sense? Especially in dirty/dusty areas OR when does not have time to always keep the chain clean and oiled. <p></p><i></i>
