Can anyone recommend a 10 speed chain that easy to fit/remove, doesn't break and preferrably doesn't cost the earth either.

Currently using just a standard shimano 105/ultegra chains on my bikes however they are starting to come to the end so looking for to replace with something easier too use (preferrably tool free).

    I have just got some reusable missing links to use with my 105 chain to make it easy to remove / refit. Haven't put one on yet though, but the dog came in last week with black oily patches in her tail so I think it's time for a clean!

    any of the KMC chains are good, can be joined / taken apart by hand without tools. whole range of models at various prices, and you can get Ti nitride coated ones which are nice as they are gold!

    IME the KMC ti-nitrided ones last longer and run smoother too - you're inclined to clean it more to see the gold finish.
    Make mine an Italian, with Campagnolo on the side..

    10 speed chains! Thanks, youve just reminded me why I stick with 9 speed - that circa 2000 Daytona kit just keeps going on and on...
