RE: [ST] best chain?

[Gaske David G DLVA <GaskeDG@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

When I got my DID chain I got it thru one of my racer friends.  To quote him
the DID 530ZVM is "The Sh!t".  He chooses to pay for the DID even though he
can get cheaper chains thru sponsors.  I've had it less than a year so I
have no idea about long term life, but it is a perrty chain.  I have the
rivet link.  I also swapped sprockets to an 18 in front and a 43 in back.
To move the axle as far forward as possible I think I am using something
like 104 links instead of the 108, FWIW.

Hey guys, sorry I missed the obvious answer in the Owners Manual on the
link count (108) for endless chains for our ST's.  

I've seen several posts from folks that have gone with the DID 530VM or
the DID 530ZVM but only one from an RK 530XSO user.  Any more feedback out
there on the DID vs. RK products?
