Design and technology

The VX3 series incorporates Direct Energy Transfer technology, aimed at increasing chain rigidity to deliver crisper throttle response. Its X-Ring seals are retained more effectively, contributing to improved sealing and wear resistance over time. With an average tensile strength around 8,210 pounds and a weight of 1.52 kg per 100 links, this chain balances strength and weight for enthusiasts seeking reliable performance.

• Expanded application range from street to off-road riding up to 800cc, compared to VX2.
• Premium gold finish adds durability and a striking look on camera and display alike.
• Includes a clip-style master link for straightforward installation and field maintenance.

Real-world use and potential benefits

Riders may notice more responsive throttle feel during quick accelerations and steadier chain movement on rugged terrain. The combination of higher retention X-rings and the Direct Energy Transfer tech can contribute to smoother operation and confidence across varied riding styles. The chain’s forged construction and tested strength offer a sturdy option for a range of bikes and setups.

• Ideal for street performance, ATV, and off-road riding, including light dual-sport setups.
• Gold finish adds visual appeal without compromising durability when exposed to the elements.

Installation, care, and compatibility tips

For best results, verify chain length and correct tension for your sprockets. Regularly clean and lubricate the chain to preserve the X-ring seals and overall performance. Inspect the master link and X-ring retention during routine maintenance, and replace the master link if any wear is detected. Proper care can help maintain consistent performance between rides.
