Best Single Speed Chain is the YBN 3/32 by far. Hard to find in America, but Crupi BMX imports it as the Crupi BMX Expert. Lasts way longer than the KMC or the SRAM, has the same new roller coating tech that holds lube better like their 12 speed chain that has the lowest friction right now on road bikes.
@@shawnpritchard366 That's not true at all. The Izumi is an old school bushing design with 10 watts of resistance. The modern roller design of the YBN is a speedy 3 watts. The 14 dollar YBN is also stronger than the 90 dollar Izumi with a tensile strength of 1400kgf. The top of the line Izumi is 1300kgf. Pay for the 30 dollar YBN and you can bump that strength up to 1800kgf. The Izumi is for when you want to be a filipino fixie poser or you need NJS certification to race.
Best single speed chain I've ever ridden is a belt drive doesn't rust doesn't snap doesn't slap the chainstay doesn't need lubrication but to each their own
never rode bmx. just got a fixer fat bike. i run a bullit cargo bike now so my dog axel is always with me. gonna put a sidecar on the fatbike.@@vitalbikechains
Izumi Jet Black single speed track chains are the best. Fairly inexpensive price for what you’re getting. Look great too.

That’s great info. Thanks for the comment!
@@vitalbikechains It's cool give it a try, it's one of the few Single Speed chains with hand me down tech from the latest road bike chain advances.
Izumi makes the best single speed chains.

lol... that was my first bike too. well, i had the evil knevil version. 1976.
Knevil was my hero! Funny thing is I rode that bike until I moved, the came back to those old trails 5 years later and THEN got hooked on BMX
