Re: #25 & #35 chains
The clear conclusion we always push is to properly analyze the application and for the loading requirements on the chain. After looking at the stress that will be applied look at the manufacturer's maximum recommended load for the chain you want to use then using sound engineering judgement determine if the chain will be acceptable with apropriate factors of safety.
Don't try to shortcut this and just use something because some one on CD told you it was good. Every application should be looked at seperatly because what may work for me on the 177 drive train may not work for Robin at 173 (we rarely use the same chain size) or Andy on 716, etc.
