Thanks, Ryan -- I used this chain because it was in one of my boxes. I'll let it wear out and keep in mind the better KMCs.
I don't mind if the cheapie wears quickly; just don't want it to do bad to my Ring and Cog. BTW: Bro-in-law says he'll help me install clutch kit when he visits in July; may I keep the manuals until then? Have driven it N-S (all level) but as it warms up the clutch slips badly. Tx.
