Which chain for this build?
Moderator: robbosmans
New bike build on the way.. crit bike. This is the drive train:
1x 11-speed
SRAM Red 11 speed rear derailleur (the new one)
Rotor ALDHU carbon crank
Fibre-lyte carbon chain ring
SRAM Red 11 cassette
Would I be better off with a shimano DA chain or a SRAM Red chain here?

It hardly matters. My Shimano, SRAM and KMC chains all shift about the same.
To answer my own question, followed the SRAM thing of wrapping the chain around the chainring and biggest cog and adding three links to that. Very easy
