How do I know which chain to buy for my bike?
How do I choose? Bike chain selection is firstly decided based upon the “speed” of the chain; this is because it determines the width of the chain. An 11 speed chain for example is narrower than a 9 speed chain, as the sprockets on the 11 speed cassette have a narrower spacing between them.
Are bike chains universal?

Another ballpark method for checking chain wear is by measuring it with a ruler. Pick a rivet and line it up at the zero mark. Count 24 more rivets and your last rivet should be at the 12″ mark of your ruler. If it is off by more than 1/16″ your chain is stretched to the point of replacement.
