Chain advise...

[Trick]

Hi All,
New to forum, and I just have a question regarding a chain for a build for my son. A '66 Stingray with 36T Lucky 7
Can anyone recommend a source and type (brand) of chain I should be considering?
All help is appreciated!!

I mean, basically any 1/8" bicycle (single speed) chain will work. I like Izumi.

If you're looking for the CORRECT chain for a restoration, I can't help you. I like to cut up old bikes, not collect them.

Except for rare specialty bikes, there's pretty much only 2 types of bike chains: narrow (3/32) for bikes with derailleurs, and wide (1/8) for everything else. I have gone so far as to buy a chain at Walmart because that was the only place open and they happen to sell both types. Worked fine.

Thanks for the info....

Izumi here for 13 years now. They are tough to beat for durability/price.

KMC also makes some decent Single Speed chains, they even come in a variety of colours, if you're into that.

I don't know about the KMC chains anymore seems that the quality has went south with their chain's lately
