  • Cleaned and degreased — handling ready
  • Great for jewelry, crafts, steampunk, display builds

Condition: Cleaned and degreased. Hints of patina on a few links. Measures 0.75% wear on a Park Tool CC-4 — at replacement spec for riding, sold for craft, display, and period-correct wall builds.


Notes from MyBikeThing: Off a 1950s-60s Olmo teardown. Sixty-plus years of miles gave this chain its character — already degreased, so no solvent mess before your project. Vintage roller chain links make bracelets, keychains, and industrial art that new chain can’t fake.

Workshop Wisdom: To break a chain into segments, any chain tool works — push the pin most of the way out, leaving it in the outer plate, and segments snap apart clean. A few links soaked in mineral spirits then waxed won’t shed black residue on skin or clothes.

Guarantee: You put in the miles, we put in the work! 30 day Guarantee, rest assured of fit, function and condition 🙂
