HELP SECTION

Optimal Speed - the ideal number of rear cogs, based on the outer width of the chain and the cog width it was designed for. For 6 Speed Shimano Uniglide a 5/6 spd chain will perform best.

Shifting System(s) - indexed shifters 'click' when you change gear. For 9 speed upwards (or Suntour Accushift), to guarantee the best performance we recommend using the dedicated chain. Otherwise, for 8 speed and below, or any speed when using friction shifting (non-index), you just need the correct outer width.

Outer width - measured across the rivets at the widest point, these are the approximate widths for different speed setups (up to 4 speed is also dependent on cog width):

Speed Outer Width
2 to 4 Speed (1/8”) 8.5 to 9.5 mm
Up to 6 Speed (3/32”) 7.8 to 8.0 mm
7 Speed / ‘Narrow’ 6 Speed 7.3 mm
8 Speed / ‘Narrow’ 7 Speed 7.0 to 7.3 mm
9 Speed 6.5 to 6.7 mm

Cog Width - the gap between the inner plates allows for different rear cog/sprocket widths. 3/32" is the standard for 5 to 8 speed, above that it’s 11/128”. For 4 speed or less, 3/32” and 1/8” were both used, for the latter you will need a 1/8” chain. A wider 3/16" moped chain can be used as a heavy duty opton for single cog setups if required).

Chain pitch - the distance between the rivets/pins. All chains will be 1/2" with two exceptions; 3/16" (“inch pitch”) for very early track bikes, or Shimano's short lived 10 mm pitch system from the 70s/80s.

Number of links - if you're unsure how many you need, measure your old chain (each link has two rivets) or one with a similar setup to yours.

A beautifully drawn fun book.
Format: Paperback
This was an extremely fun book that works as another chapter in the Energon Universe Image is building. The art work is fantastic and the story is full of action and is told in a fast pace. Another reviewer complained it is woke and forced diversity but I did not see that at all. If you love GI Joe you will love this book.

A great pick up for new Joe fans
Format: Paperback
A very fun read! I’m a fan of Kelly Thompson in general and this did not disappoint. I recommend it if you liked Thompsons other work. It’s a bit reminiscent of her Black Widow run.

Please keep Kelly Thompson away from G.I. Joe!
Format: Paperback
I only read this because it was one of the mini series that was setting up the new Energon Universe of GI Joe. The other minis were quite good and I hoped this one would be the same. Nope. It’s terrible. Terrible dialogue, terrible characterization and terrible reimagining of several popular characters. The plot is bare bones, poorly executed, and often so contrived and cliched I'm convinced Thompson must have watched a bunch of ninja movies from the 80s before writing this and thought she was being clever for ripping them off. The art is passable but the artist definitely needs to work on his fight choreography and stop drawing women so jacked. Scarlett and Jinx look like they have been taking steroids. And let’s not forget that Thompson loves writing lesbians, so it’s heavily implied Scarlett and Jinx are a couple. Because that’s what modern audiences want to see, more historically hetero characters made gay. Thompson, like Tom King, needs to be kept far away from popular characters and just stick to creating her own original stories where she can work out her issues and fetishes away from the rest of the mainstream comic reading public. And if I ever see her name on another G.I. Joe comic I will most definitely avoid it like the plague. Just my two cents.

Painful Read
Format: Paperback
This is a painful read. I only got it because I’m reading the rest of the EU Booms.
