A shout out goes to rockymountainmc.com for the quality of their X ring chains.
What I noticed most is how much easier the bike pushed and the instant torque. This is due to the X ring chain being narrower than the O ring chain I was running before. It does not rub my chain guide at all so it is very quiet.
Time will tell on how long it lasts but it does spec out slightly better than the DID I was running before as far as tensile strength.
Bottom line is if you were reluctant to run a "ring" chain in the past due to concerns about rubbing or loss of power but want a pretty much maintenance free chain.... this may be the ticket for you.
Oh... and it is a handsome chain too.... Entirely Gold... not just the outer plates like some.
