Last time I broke a chain was riding bmx. Haven't broken a chain in trials since I bought a K810, which was a year ago.
Good chain + Good chainline = No problems. Obviously.

mine skips pretty good two or three times a ride. I'm wondering when it will break.

Get a good chain, replace it every several months and never again worry about snapping chains!

im lucky too. i was just hoppin around on some wooden fence rail things that are about 2-3 feet high when i came down wierd and bent my rear rim to the point where it doesn't even turn. Lucky
Reminds me to change mine...it's approaching six months. K-810 is dirty cheap too. Last time I snapped my chain only because I had a shitty SRAM chain. Never happened with the PC-99 & hollow version though...

i broke a chain this week, I wasnt pleased. Could have been way worse though. i also tore my shin apart on a bunnyhop crankflip....i was even less pleased.

I fell off my bike and hurt myself. Lucky though, my bike isn't a cliff !

I run a shadow conspiracy chain bmx and no probs on failed stails to my chain.
I've heard lots of good things about the kmc 510's though. I had 410 a while ago and that thing was mighty tough!
