Chains
Chain Size Explained
Island: Tahiti
Here is an excellent write up on changing from an Imperial size chain to a Metric chain and the related
sizing issues.
I used this when replacing our 35 year old 3/8" BBB chain with 10mm Maggi chain.

We needed a new steering chain, but transport from Hallberg Rassy Parts in Sweden would’ve been very
