I need a new drive train and as eBay goofed up what I had in my basket, thought I'd check if there was a common consensus.
I nearly bought a KMC X10-93 which seems to get good reviews.
Any others worth looking at?

I've been using that KMC chain for years and never had any problems, and it comes with a missing link

If you have a decathlon store near you buy there 10spd chain for £13.99.
It's a KMC X10EL in btwin packaging same as this:-

Most other places sell they for £20+ so a bargain at £13.99

KMC every time for me! And if you're doing it on a budget like me I buy mine from my local decathlon BTwin boxed but KMC chains with missing link.

Thanks all, gone for a kmc (before the tips about decathlon).
Might be worth a diversion next time I'm passing one though.
