Are some chains just noisier?
Noob question and I have searched
Do some chains just make more noise? I snapped my old KMC chain, got a SRAM chain and it makes a ton of noise. I've heard SRAM make many great products, so maybe I got a bad example.
1/8 chain and both cogs are 1/8 also.
I lube it and keep it clean (followed some videos on youtube)
Have about 300km on it now. it is fairly slack just like my last chain was (tried it tighter but it didn't help the noise situation)
When I'm riding down the road, I have seen people on the sidewalk who hear me coming and look over, just from the chain noise. This never happened before
This is driving me nuts. Will it get better? Ready to throw it in the trash.
