Typically any half link chain will come up as needing replacement if you check it with this tool after just a few weeks of riding, that's how bad it is.


G.

I just got the chain yesterday so haven't rode it yet just rode it out front of my house for a min or to and makes this crazy noise. When I got my shadow chain in May did not make any noise and the speoket and driver where older just don't understand why it is doing that.

There's your answer.

Give a Shadow chain half a summer to wear in and it'll eat your sprocket.
Back when i was pretty fanatic, i had a setup with a wayy overbuilt KHE chain and a new sprocket. Didn't stretch.

Sprockets that have had strechy chains can be easily spotted; compare them to a new sprocket, and look at the angle and the outer profile of the teeth and the parts inbetween. They will likely have become pretty wide.

I have never trusted halflink chains after my first one kept breaking at the plate bend.

Like G so magnificently said, halflink chains stretch in two ways. The plates stretch like a bitch, and when they're done, the pins start coming loose (which i've seen happen more than i think is funny).
I nearly wanted to post G's statement on FB, just for the amount of fools that keep buying these shit products.

Go e-mail Shadow instead.

Yea I did that a while ago told them there chain sucks never heard back from them haha I had the cult chain to it also sucks but better than the shadow chain. I got the keychain working good now I had to re space my cranks a bit works good now probley  one of the best chain out there.

Wish I had an offset teeth sprocket, I think my Keychain is loud because of the chain alignment being slightly off. It does quiet down after a few hours of riding, though.

Yea Ben messing wit it all morning I think that is the problem I'm having. I have a tree speoket they say that is has offset teeth I think I'm going to try the l7 I got the profile spline drive cranks so there are only a few sprockets I can choose from.
