I have tried one of these 'cheap' chains on a practice day and it lasted only 20 laps and sounded horrid despite normal chain lube. The best 219 chain out there is without question the Panther chain which is very free running and lasts, in fact I now have 6 meetings on my current chain plus practice days and it is still as smooth as the day it was fitted. However you do pay more for these chains but the longevity and lack of sprocket wear more than compensates.
The free running nature of these chains is apparent when compared to a DID if spun up on the stand. Anyone else tried Panther?
