Ebike chain vs regular chain for up to 350w Mid Drive
I don’t think you need an eBike specific chain. Pro cyclists can achieve 1000W and huge torque in a sprint and they use lightweight road bike chains. Even with a 350W motor you are unlikely to reach similar levels.
It looks like the e10 has beefier pins with &quot;mushroom&quot; riveting. The weight is basically identical (2.34g vs. 2.35g per link) and both have nickel plating.
Doesn’t look like it would make a difference. I think it’s merely a way for KMC to make more money with &quot;eBike specific&quot; parts. The same can be seen with eBike specific tires.
