I have used KMC chains in the past and have always had good luck with them so I decided to give this a shot. In order to install this chain you will need a chain breaker. It does come with a masterlink but you will still have to shorten the chain to the proper size for your bike. I recommend getting a high quality chain tools such as the ones available from Park Tool as inexpensive ones sometimes are even capable of breaking a high quality chain like this one. Once you have the chain cut to size it is very easy to install it with the masterlink. It also comes with directions so even if you haven't done this before you can do it no problem. I've been riding multiple bikes with this chain for months and have never had any issues whatsoever with them. As long as you keep them lubricated they are very quiet and they are as strong as it gets. Overall for the price you really can't beat this chain. It is easy to install and super strong. I would highly recommend it! Review: Works great for me - I purchased this a while back when I was still fixing bike. At the time I was building a bike, taking parts here and there to build my own bike. This chain was great. The chain that I had before I bought this one was quiet loose and kept falling out of place. I did some research and read some reviews and decided to purchase this. This lasted a for a long time to the point where I sold my bike to a little girl and her father. They were pretty please with the bike that I put together at the moment. I would recommend this chain and purchase it again in the future if I need to. ## Features - KMC Z410 brown BMX or single speed 1/8-Inch chain - Great for BMX, Fixies, Cruisers, Track bikes and all single speed needs - For all non-derailleur bikes: BMX, Fixies, Cruisers and track - Width: 9.3 milli meter, Weight: 399.0grams ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0013C7M6E | | Best Sellers Rank | #417,064 in Sports & Outdoors ( See Top 100 in Sports & Outdoors ) #453 in Bike Chains | | Brand Name | KMC | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 4.4 out of 5 stars (322) | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00766759910020 | | Included Components | MASTERLINK | | Item Length | 112 Inches | | Item Type Name | CHAIN BIKE | | Item Weight | 11.2 ounces | | Load Capacity | 1E+3 lbf | | Manufacturer | KMC | | Material Type | Alloy Steel | | Model | S1 x 112L, BR/BR | | Part Number | S1 x 112L, BR/BR | | Pitch | 0.5 Inches | | Recommended Uses For Product | BMX, Cruisers, Fixies, Track bikes and all single speed needs | | Roller Diameter | 0.5 Inches | | Strand Type | Single | | UPC | 766759241018 766759910020 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** KMC - **Item Pitch:** 0.5 Inches - **Load Capacity:** 1E+3 lbf - **Material:** Alloy Steel - **Recommended Uses For Product:** BMX, Cruisers, Fixies, Track bikes and all single speed needs ## Images ![KMC CHAIN 1SP S1 BRN , 0.5 inches X 0.13 inches - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61UumCUIYTL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Does this chain come pre-assembled or will I need a chain tool?** A: it comes with a master link, but you will need a chain tool to adjust the length **Q: What size should I use for a standard beach cruiser, 1/8 or 1/2 x 1/8?** A: 1/2 is the length of each link for almost every bike out there... And for a beach cruiser 1/8 is the width and is just perfect for your ride.When you get into those 8,9,10 speed bikes, the width of the chain is narrower to fit in between the cogs. **Q: can this fit on a 24" single speed bmx bike** A: It might, I used it on a 20" one speed bike. If the gears/sprockets are close to the same as a twenty in sprockets/gears then yes. **Q: Does it come with a Master Link?** A: Dear valued Amazon Customer, This chain comes with a spring clip type link.

Comes with a connector link but you need to look in the package carefully because it gets stuck inside. Anyways, you will probably need to to adjust the length so you will need a chain tool and you really do not need the connector link if you do not use the full 112 links. Apparently one or more reviewers has had a problem with the connector link's durability. Otherwise, I am very pleased with the product. Have not used it long enough to know anything about the chain's durability but looks like it would be fine for general riding. ## Frequently Bought Together - KMC Z410 Bicycle Chain (1-Speed, 1/2 x 1/8-Inch, 112L) - Oumers Universal Bike Chain Tool with Chain Hook, Road and Mountain Bicycle Chain Repair Tool, Bike Chain Splitter Cutter Breaker, Bicycle Remove and Install Chain Breaker Spliter Chain Tool - KMC Z410NP Connect Link, 1/8-Inch --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/1246642-kmc-chain-1sp-s1-brn-0-5-inches-x-0](https://www.desertcart.us/products/1246642-kmc-chain-1sp-s1-brn-0-5-inches-x-0) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-05-10*
