Dave Greer –
I was a little nervous about moving to a chain this small, but was looking for less rotational mass. After talking with Gregg I took the plunge and ordered his 415 conversion kit. It was definitely several pounds lighter than the 520 chain I was running. I waited to do a review until I had some miles on it. I am happy to say that I am just under 5000 miles and today was the first time I did a significant adjustment to the chain stretch. It is holding up very well. I do take good care of the chain and lube it frequently since it is a none O-ring chain.
