xcountry chain set

[drimcong]

Hello,
need a new chain etc.
Have youse any recommendations which brands to buy?
Original is an endless chain 122 links. - front pinion 16, rear 47.
x-ring is the way to go, but further on I haven't got a clew.
local crowd have a set for about 150 + fitting.
D.I.D. brand, no idea where the sprockets are from.
Is it better for the wide open, to use 15teeth instead of the 16?
Thanx for suggestions.
Josey

Ring Demon Tweeks, speak to Neil Riddle. 01978 663082.
Afam do sprockets for the application and Tsubaki do a 520 o-ring chain with a splitlink option for closure of the chain loop.
I moved on to Tsubaki as DiD were getting too expensive. I keep it lubed for every ride and so far had no problems with using the chain on my X-challenge and DRZ400.
