Morning all
My 10 speed Campagnolo Veloce chain is getting near to the point where it needs to be replaced.
Is anyone on here running a Campagnolo groupset with a less expensive chain from a different manufacturer?
Will I regret trying to save a few quid?
Ta in advance.
I’ve always used KMC. You don’t need a special tool to join the chain together again either.
I would not change from Campa to KMC. All my chains are Campa, 9, 10 and 11 speed.
But I'm using KMC/YBN quick links to make my life easier.
Cheers!
I.

Why not?
I use KMC with no issues at all.
I use a Campag chain with KMC link. Although I've changed the link more than once because it's gone a bit sloppy.
The first time I looked I thought I'd got a Shimano 105 chain, but on inspection it said 10 S.
Why not?
Got better millage out of Campa than KMC.
Cheers!
I.
Another happy KMC user here
Cheers all.
I've just had a look and over the years (10 or so) my Veloce groupset has been replaced with:
- Miche cassette (so I could use a set of Mavic wheels with a shimano free hub body)
- TA Chainrings
- BBB Jockey wheels.
Seems little point in splashing out on another Campagnolo chain!
KMC or Sram on my Campag 10 speed always. Get yourself a chain checker and change it when it reaches the minimum wear point. You should get three chains to one cassette.
Usually use sram, campag chains are a pain, kmc quick links on a campag chain though. I use Kmc chains too, all good. I have campag on all my road bikes.
I used a Mavic chain when I ran Campag 10 speed. Still some around at £25ish

15000+ all weather miles with kmc x10.73 chains on Campag veloce. My go-to 10 speed chain.
