get a 120 link and cut it to size-i think that would be the best bet for length

EK makes X-ring chains too. Being completely honest with you, you really can't go wrong if you get the manufacturer recommended O-ring or X-ring chain for your bike or setup. And when I say manufacturer we're talking DID, Regina, EK, Driven, etc...

Ah ok. I was under the impression that DID was the only one who made an x-ring chain. I bought a chain/sprocket set and didn't see any other x-ring chains when I was shopping around.

I ended up with the DID thanks to recomendations from members here and endorse it highly.

(DID is the brand zmds)
