For the money of 1 KMC dlc chain you can buy 2 Campa record chains.
Apparently you go for looks in first place. Budget and durability seems not to be your first concern.
Although there are offcourse a large number of exciting reviews on the internet for the KMC dlc, in Wiggle style:
Came in this morning, very nice box, mounted it on my bike and rode 20 miles. Boy what am I satisfied. 5 stars on Wiggle/Amazon/ Bitchsite
As far as i know the dlc coating is on the outside of the chain where the friction is on the inside of the chain mainly. So imo its not much more than marketing and some fancy colors. But have in mind when you pass on your bike, noone will notice your fancy colored chain . . . . But hey when your intention is to pimp your bike, you just need to go for that.
