Funny, I was just searching for a new chain and was going to ask the post the same thing. I've had SRAM and Wippermann, but after reading this chain wear test I'm switching back to Wippermann Stainless Steel. Hope it helps

I've used and recommended Wipperman chains for years. Maybe a bit heavier than some of the competition, but they run well on various drivetrains and are idiot-proof to install or remove.
