I am confused over a simple issue.
My bike is running flawlessly on a BBR Tuning Sprocket Adapter (40T) that I ordered from BikeBerry. I have been doing this for years now and I've always used 415 chain. When I built up my current ride, I fixed the drive sprocket to an old 415 chain I had procured sometime before. I had another 415 chain to choose from but I noticed on a test fitting that it's narrow half-links would not seat onto the sprocket.
I bought my most recent kit from Dax that came with a 415 chain. It wouldn't fit the sprocket, either.
I looked at the BikeBerry website and under their adapters it had a note that they would only accept "415 Heavy Duty" chains. OK, so they are the vendor and they only advertise "415 Heavy Duty" chains, so I will order one from them. I received the new chain yesterday and - wouldn't you know it? - it will not work, either.
I am wondering what makes the 415 chain I am using workable. I have only ordered chains or kits that advertise 415 chain.
I don't know what the deal is. Anyone else ever run into this problem?
