My girl is buyin me a new set of chain and sprockets for christmas but I'm unsure how many link chain i need.. just stickin to a mild 15/50 so i ahve tons for the street.. would 120 link be enough or should I just tell her to pick me up 130 and i'll cut it to size?

 

I'm close to needing a new chain/sprockets as well and I'm 90% sure that the 120 link will work, i think i read somewhere that 120 will due for most bikes for up to +5:+6. I may be wrong so I'm looking forward to an answer as well

 

According to Haibikeshop:

http://www.haibikeshop.com/store/ind...roducts_id=470

120 link chain will generally cover stock to +5 rear sprockets. 130 link chain will generally cover up to +20 rear sprockets. Please specify chain below.

So hoprefully that helps you out

 

120 will be plenty, on my first bike i went -1 +8 and i still had to cut some off, which i had 15/53 sprockets

 

alright thanks guys

 

i have 15/52 on my f4, and i use less than 120 link on it. 525 pitch

 

random question how's 15/52 perform at highway speeds?
