can i use the sidewinder chain with some sprockets other than the sidwinder brand

i need a new chain, from what i can see sidewinder would be the best chain, im pretty sure sidwinder chain links may be bigger than other brands.

i would think they should all fit the same, but you want to replace chains and sprockets as a set, so they wear together

They are good chains, but for the money from what I hear. the cost is kind of high. If you have money burning a hole in your pocket, get one. Other wise you can get just as good or better chain for under $100. You can use any chain with any sprokets, just change them all at the same time.

dont pay the price if your only getting a sidewinder chain. since your sprokets are already starting to weat. they will ont wear even, and wear out even faster. just save up and get a while sidewider set-up. will last you a very long time.
