Grebel Posted August 23, 2018 Share Must be honest I didn't ask for an O-ring chain - just a General Transmission 15.88 pitch chain. http://www.renold.com/products/industrial-transmission-chain/general-transmission-chain/ Was about R200/m Thats dirt cheap, used BM chains on my RZ50 and later on my RZ350 but that was years ago. Pros and cons to using both. For general road and commuting use a std transmission chain would work fine albeit with a bit more maintenance. However if you do any gravel travel or off road excursions, o-ring might be a better purchase.
