Chain cassette compatability
Simple question. I have a Sh. 7 speed cassette (UniGlide on my tourer,
HypeGlide on my MTB). What's the narrowest chain that will work with these? - - Comments and opinions compliments of, "Your Friendly Neighborhood Wheelman" My web Site: http://geocities.com/czcorner To E-mail me: ChrisZCorner "at" webtv "dot" net

But, I think the narrower and lighter the chain, the weaker it is.

But, I think the narrower and lighter the chain, the weaker it is. If this is an 'indexed' system, a click shift system, the width of the chain makes a huge difference...need the proper width. If the shifter is friction then any chain would work, of course. i have used a 10s chain on my DA 7s friction shifter setup w/o problem.
