I'm rebuilding my bicycle, and realize it needs a new chain. I checked the stretch and it's about 3/16" play over 12 inches. I understand anything above 1/8" play is toast.
I like to buy online. My question is, are there different sizes that I need to pay attention to? Or are most older 10-speeds the same size chain? I don't want to end up with something that doesn't fit.
The bike is a 38 years old Raleigh Rampar, with I don't know how many thousands of miles on it. The chain is 58-1/2" long with 117 links, stamped D.I.D. on each link.
