Dawes City Vision bike with Nexus 7 came with 3/32 sprocket & chain. You can either ignore these facts or assume that it's probably the same for the Nexus 8. I would ignore them unless no one else provides more relevant info! ~PB |

Should be OK with 1/8" chain as that will work on 3/32 and 1/8 sprockets.
Also 1/8 is a quicker to fit because the joining system is much easier to handle. SW "Jim Harvest" wrote in message ... Hi What size is the chain used with the nexus 8 hub gear? Thanks |

Could be either. 3/32 is normal but it can be fitted with an 1/8 sprocket - my Nexus 7 is using 1/8. So, if you're asking because you want to know if it's feasible to use a Nexus on a particular bike, the answer is you can make it work with either width. If you're asking because you need to buy a chain - check the thickness of your sprocket and chainwheel. -- Andrew |
