Looking shortly to replace the Dura Ace chain I run on Sram Red. Anyone have any experience of useing the Wiperman 10SX stainless chain with Sram Red? Or am I better off to continue using Dura Ace?

    In my experience I would stay clear of the Wipperman stainless steel

    After about 6 months outer plates on the chain started bending causing the pins to fall out and obviously causing the chain to break. After fixing it three times with Wipperman connectors I decided to chuck it.

    A great idea in principle, a chain that doesn't rust - but in practice (IMHE) not so good
