Scroll down to the information on chains.

Good information. I'm just running the stocker right now. If I change I'll probably just take my dealer's advice (bike builder and racer.)

I've used DID 'X'-ring chains with renthal sprocks 8 years and never had any trouble. My bikes have all come with a Regina chains but they did'nt last as well as the DID so I just kept with them:ride:
I'm running 13/50 and 114 links,

I like the RK XSO chains. They have more models now. Inexpensive (I get top model for about $65) and I haven't had any issues. I used to run DID but they began getting too expensive and I found my chain with a missing roller one time.

I like the RK chains too, but perfer the XW-ring version, less ring friction. Look around and you'll find it for the same price as the XSO. $65.
