Ask bwaller, Brent, what he uses on his race bike, I think he uses the 520. It is a almost elegant design. What did the sprocket sets cost you?
Just curious if the 520 ends up being more expensive than the 530 chain and sprocket set.
But, I imagine this 520GP chain costs more than a standard 520 chain would cost.
Does 4 into 1 carry EK or was it DSS I looked at pricing some things the other day.
South Sound Honda in WA state in Olympia are has good prices if ordering Genuine Honda. Some of the CX and GL owners on that forum have reported very good prices and shipping charges have been very reasonable as well, even on small orders. They found their discount to be either the best or close to the best and the shipping made up for it.
Worth taking a look at....
So, pack a few bologna sandwiches for work instead of going out to eat if you normally would...or skip the Starbucks or coffee shop and you will soon have saved the amount you spent extra on that chain...
Or, buy a container of chocolate whey protein and have a 20g protein shake instead of lunch and you are likely to easily shave a few pounds of weight over the course of a month or two at the most...every pound you trim off your body will be that much less on the bike, which if racing pays dividends on the track. Easier to trim 5-10 pounds off your body than it is your bike.
Your spouse or girlfriend is likely to hate you for how easily you can drop weight...at least that will be true until you hit your 50s and higher when changes in your body start making it harder to lose weight than it " used to be"...
