[QUOTE="vibrac, post: 103123, member: 60"] This is what I got from Roger Moss via the Scott Forum (2016) it looks like 1/2 pitch but its cold and the Scott is wrapped up (NB Roger uses a mag belt drive on his racer) [I]However much later "The Chain Man" suggested I recommend a 3/16" wide chain by IWIS that was intended for use on the final drive of a 125cc Honda racer. He assured me that it would work fine and the extra width would give no problems in operation. I have recommended it to customers over a few years now and nobody has come back and said that this does not work. I can only pass on this information in good faith, as I have not used a mag chain for over 30 years, but believe this is very likely to be a quantum advance on rebadged Chinese bicycle chain. (I have never seem a bicycle with pedals revolving at 4500 rpm or more) So to information The Chain Man Andy Forsdick 11 Gloucester Way Bewdley Worcs. DY12 1QF[/I] [/QUOTE]
