## Description

Z8.1-NP/GY and Z72 are the same chain with different packaging

Review: Awesome chain for an even more awesome price - I have had nothing but good luck with this chain. I've run them with Tiagra, Sora and Alevio 8-speed systems. The chain is smooth, quiet, and shifts very precisely. One of the really nice things about the Z-72 is that it even comes with the "missing link" master instead of having to splice it with your chain tool or buying the missing link separately which can be quite pricey. This chain is very well-made and I was talking to a guy who does bicycle mechanics training and he showed me that the quality of the Z-72 is actually better than other name brands such as SRAM. His method entails taking a new chain and seeing how much sideways deflection there is in it. As any chain wears and "stretches" this sideways deflection increases. The less deflection a chain has when it is new the better it will shift (to a certain extent as you need a certain amount in order for the chain to cross back and forth.) This chain fairs better than many name brands in this test. It is also very low-priced. It's so low-priced that you can afford to run two chains on every bike and have one soaking in an oil bath and being cleaned up while you run the other one. I like to soak, drip-dry over the oil, and then towel off the chain to dry so it is like the factory-oiled chain it was when it was new. Every time I have a dry/dusty/muddy/rainy ride I will swap out the clean chain and start the process over. This process really increases chain life and keeps it quiet and performing well for many miles. Get a couple of these for your bike -they are well worth the few dollars they cost. I really love them.
Review: Cheap,Easy,Good! - First I picked this chain due to the great price, Second was the ease of putting on bike with the q-link it just takes a couple of minutes to put on bike. Third, many of the reviews cite that the chain works well for them. Frankly I have not had the chain long enough to know, however I can promise you that out of the box it is well luped, in fact almost too thick but hey the bike functions fine. If I see that this chain wear quickly I will revise my rating but at this price if the chain lasts 600-700 miles I break even, longer wear would make it the best value, I am suspect if you were racing you might want to seek out another chain but for commuting I think this chain will be fine. 11/1/2016 visited with a friend whose bike I had installed one of these chains she is about 5-8 150 lbs and after inspecting the chain my educated guess is she could get 1000-1200 miles out of this chain. This bike is strictly used for commuting.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ A basic chain for a recreational bicyclist.
*by A***E on February 17, 2015*

Easy to install and good quality. Honestly I couldn't really tell that it was silver and brown. The whole thing looked silver to me. Regardless, this thing was a cinch to install. After removing your old chain, just count the number of links on it. Then count the same number of links on this new chain and subtract one. That is where you'll connect the master link that comes with the chain. Once you've got your two master link pieces on and the chain ready to thread, give it one more count just to be sure. I went ahead and ordered a few spare master links just in case of future breakage and a compact chain breaker tool to pop out a broken link pin. Bottom line: It's a basic chain. If you're not a bike snob, then this chain works great for a 21-speed mountain bike that's almost 20 years old.
