I do have a question.....I've tried to read a few posts on the subject, but not sure if I'm missing something.
Anyway I have a Almax chain that's 16mm ( I think) and don't really use it much as I rarely go anywhere and leave the bike.
I have taken it with me a couple of times in the top box and not noticed any difference riding.
I appreciate some people don't like taking big chains with them mainly because of the weight, but I'm taking a bag with a few clothes in, and my top box is going to be practical empty, apart from a few basic tools etc.
The bag will be strapped to rear seat.
I can't see the chain being a problem, but reassurance from someone with a bit more knowledge would be nice
I generally lay it in the box like a coil so weight is evenly distributed.
Thanks
