There is very little initial elongation.
I have my own image of chain companies: "RK is for racing, DID is for public roads. This time, I installed this product on DUDACI MONSTER S4 2003 model. I chose DID ZVM-X Series Chain Gold because the bike is for public road use. I am very satisfied with this product because there is almost no initial elongation and it looks beautiful.

Not from the moment you push and pull the Motorcycle!
Chain and front and rear sprocket are also changed for review, so it may not be the same as Single Body;
First of all, the Motorcycle's push/pull is noticeably lighter after the replacement!
This is honestly surprising.
It has only been driven a short distance once, so durability is still to be confirmed, but it DID have the highest peak. (New Model 2 is out now) Chain, so there will be no problem.
The OEM Chain had not been used for such a long distance, but we felt that the quietness was a step above that of the OEM Chain.
I also tried driving down a mountain road in Neutral condition for a while to test it out, and I was able to make a lot of progress.
This is another proof of the low Friction.
It looks Gorgeous and Good!
You can't go wrong with DID's ZVM-X. It's a great Chain!
Finally, the replacement was done by myself, but it requires a special tool like the Chain Cut & Crimp tool, and it is a drivetrain job, so if you are not confident about it, it would be safer to have it replaced at a local shop.

525 Size's best work
It was used to replace a Chain that had been used for over 60,000 km in 3 years.
It is a replacement from ZVM2, the predecessor of ZVM-X.
By the way, the chain was not stretched at all even after that much use, and there was no sticking of the LINK, but there was a slight change in tension depending on the rotation of the Tire, and I suspected a one-sided stretching that could not be understood by eye or finger, so I replaced it.
One aspect of this is that we replaced the Chain just in case we were afraid of the Chain, which did not extend to an uncanny degree even after 6,000 km of use.
(As it turned out, Chain's one stretch was a false accusation, and the problem was actually on the Wheel side……)
The Chain had not been stretched after 60,000 km of use, but even so, it was somewhat worn, and the resistance when the LINK was bent was harder than the new one.
It is not that the new one you purchased is sticking, but that the Chain you were using was probably working looser than it should.
The fact that the O-rings bend lightly even though they are not stretched may indicate that the elasticity of the O-rings is less than new, and the sliding resistance may have decreased.
That's about the only difference from new.
So the replacement has not suddenly reduced the feeling of friction, made it quieter, or improved fuel economy.
The original was too good.
The Chain used was not even Rust, so the replacement did not change its appearance.
I think the luster of Plating has increased, but once you get a little further away, you can't tell the difference.
The original was too good.
of the previous work ZVM2 The stiffness is said to be 10% stiffer than that of the previous model, but so far we have not been able to feel the difference.
I wanted to experience what it means to have better handling with improved stiffness…….
However, the Smoothness is clearly different compared to the low-cost, inferior Chain, and there is no hooking feeling.
As a result, the body should move like this when timed from fully closed to open. As a result, the rigidity of the car body does not betray the expectation that the car body should move like this when timed from fully closed to open, or it may mean that the rigidity is Large.
Whatever it is, I have no complaints about the performance at all, which is great, and if I think that this performance will continue for another tens of thousands of kilometers in the future, I think that this Gold price is cheap.
Besides. It always feels good to ride." If you are only concerned about cosmetics, you will lose something important.

silent chain
My motorcycle is kawasaki ninja400, the original chain of the motorcycle is too loud, I don't want to ride it until I bought this DID chain on webike, this chain runs very silky, and I can't hear the annoying sound anymore The sound of the chain, the price is also very beautiful, and the webike service is really great! -------------------------------------------------- -------- My motorcycle is Kawasaki Ninja400.

DID ZVM-XGold chain525
I replaced it from OEMChain.
Since it is 116 LINKs, which is the same as the number of LINKs in the OEM Extra Chain." The structure is lean and free of
Chain replacement requires some tools (Chain Tool or Caulking Tool), so if you do not own one, it is better to ask a Shop to do it for you.
In my case. Disk sander in the Home center and then weBigOrder. Daytona Chain Tool When Kashimaru-kun ordered and then went ahead with the exchange.
AnyQuantity:One set can be used for a long time, so it would be fun to have a set of them together with Chain.
It would have been nice if the Chain came with a Sticker, but it did not, so we purchased it separately.
The performance is a fold.
The black swing arms and gold-colored chain accentuate the custom look.
OEMChain is prone to rust, so I highly recommend replacing it with WeBigOrder (lol)!!!

Vibrant Gold
Surprisingly light Gold color when removed from Package.
Solid Gold color when viewed outdoors.
The installation was done by PITService, a mass retailer.
The first impression after putting it on is that the push and pull is different.
I was particularly surprised at how easy it was to pull backward.
The driving sensation is that if you turn the Axel, it arrives the moment you turn it.
It may be good to buy it for the purpose of rust prevention since it is treated with Plating.
I don't know how it is after the initial stretch, but it is much more straightforward in terms of operation.
