People are asking for Christmas lists! I was thinking of asking/getting a KMC Gold Chain...

Anyone had any good or bad experiences, or anything to say on them?...

    It's a chain for your bike made by a reputable manufacturer and it's gold colored.
    I'm pretty sure someone will chime in with "those things are junk" and someone else
    will tell you the exact opposite. If you want it, get it. In the end, no matter who says what,
    this thing will work if properly installed.

    I love my kmc chain on my bike . Its been pretty touch and it doesn't cause chainsuck unlike my bog standard ones that came with my bike. The only disadvantage with those things is that, they are a b***h to keep shiney
