With the stuff I ride, I've stretched about every kind of chain made.

This stuff is insane- I adjusted it once on my R1 hillclimber and that's it. No more stretching. Granted, it's not cheap, but it is the best you can get...
Quoted from the site. Also, check out some of their other stuff... 150 clams for a 16k 520 chain- doooooooooooood, that's cheap.


Krause/Sidewinder has develpoed a special limited production chain exclusively reserved for extreme horsepower applications
such as 300 ft, 1/8, 1/4, mile drags; Dune Dragsters and Frankenstien Quads with monster street engines; Fat -Tire Hayabusas; Big
street bike 520 conversion kits; Hillclimbers with NOS and other extended swingarm, Fire-Breathing beasts. This chain is called
"Extreme Performance XP" limited edition chain. This chain is available with or without SR-51 "Smart Rings"in Double Gold only.
Tensile strength exceeds 17,000 lbs. Almost double anything else made.

The most expensive chain you can buy is the one that wraps up on your C/S sprocket, pokes a hole in your case, whips a hole in your leg, and for good measure.......you slide back down the hill, snapping your femur in the process....


You might have bought the cheapest chain out there Slo-Mo...


Great find!



:cool:
