1/8 th Chain

[vandatubes]

Hi

Found an old Renolds 1/8 chain its in very good 'nick' and want to use it on my Nexus 7 speed hub as the exisiting chain (kmc) is thinner and seems to be a cheapo.

But what way does the clip goes when connecting the chain?

Its either open face looking towards the forks going forward
OR
The closed end looking towards the forks going forward.

Does the 1/8th have any advantage over the 3/32?

regards

tubes
Ps.Never heard of Renolds chain before and I got it from an old hercules.

Reynolds chain was the best available until Shimano etc got in on the act. I used Reynolds on motorcycles for years.

The clip's closed end must always travel forward in the direction the chain runs.

Oh, I forgot. There's absolutely nowt wrong with KMC chain.
