Do O-ring Chains Need Lubrication?

[VonJuliana]

O-ring chains do require lubrication. Below is an introduction to O-ring chains: Function of O-ring chains: Each link of an O-ring chain has a rubber-like O-ring seal, which helps retain lubricating oil between the connecting links and prevents it from being easily flung off. Even when the exterior appears slightly shiny, the O-rings still retain some lubricating oil to maintain the chain's good condition. How to identify O-ring chains: O-ring chains are more expensive than standard chains. Virtually all chain-driven motorcycles, regardless of their high specifications, use O-ring chains. However, different models with varying positioning use O-ring chains of different strengths and specifications.
