Whether
you use your sportbike for road riding, track days or
stunting, EK has a chain that’s up to the challenge. Every
EK Chain is engineered with the same precision and advanced
technology used in their pro racing chains. No one knows
more about sealed chains than EK. After all, they invented
the O-ring chain for motorcycles way back in 1974. Since
then, they have improved on their invention with the
revolutionary Quadra-X Ring seal. The Quadra-X Ring reduces
friction by as much as 50 percent, thanks to its smaller
contact area. Yet it offers even better sealing than a
conventional O-ring, because it has twice as many contact
points between the ring and sideplates. It’s the optimal
combination of maximum sealing protection with minimum
friction. Many sealed chains are a trade-off: In the quest
for low friction, the quality of the seal between the rings
and sideplates is compromised. While such chains may offer
lower friction initially, their loose tolerances ultimately
lead to lubricant loss, premature wear, and increased
friction in the long run. EK Quadra-X Ring chains combine
reduced friction and long wear - lab tests show that they
last 50 percent longer than standard O-ring chains.
EK 530ZVX - The
Extreme Chain for Extreme Bikes
Anyone with a
Hayabusa, ZX-12 or one of the new generation of 180hp
literbikes knows how hard they are on chains. EK steps up
with an incredibly strong Quadra-X Ring chain that has
proven its superiority in controlled lab tests. ZVX chains
are also great for any bike that’s been modified for
more-than-stock horsepower. The 530ZVX is available in gold
or chrome.
