Roller chain
Roller chain or bush roller chain is the type of chain most commonly used for transmission of mechanical power on bicycles, motorcycles, and in industrial and agricultural machinery. It is simple, reliable, and efficient (as much as 98% efficient under ideal conditions), but requires more attention to maintenance than may be desired by potential owners; therefore there has been of late a tendency towards the use of other modes of power transmission, such as the cog belt.
