Description: The chain you receive for this listing will be what we think is the "older" variety with side links that simply say "Regina" in what looks to be a slightly older typeface.**Note that this chain is factory fresh and many years old, so you will want to soak it a bit (bit don't use harsh chemicals) as the original factory lube may have gummed up. The wrapper it comes in may not be in good shape after all these years.**Regina Black chain for wide space 5sp or wide space 6sp freewheels. Will not work on narrow space freewheels. This is a great go-to chain for many vintage restorations and really should be much more epensive but there is a reasonable supply of them still in the pipeline so we can offer it at a great price! Some chains may say "Regina" and some may say "Regina 80" on the side. (Otherwise the chains seep absolutely identical). The ones that simply say "Regina", from the ones we studied, seem to have an older looking typeface. We're selling these possibly older ones for a small premium. Note that the packaging on both varieties is a bit random - some packaging says etra, and some doesn't, so regardless of what your chain's side plate engraving is, the packing may vary. These chains are a great affordable way to get the positive ker-chunk shift feel that only the stiffer wide space chains provide. Not necessarily better - just different and more "classic". We've been selling these for awhile now and we've had folks come back many times for more. No reason to not change your chain often in order to preserve those precious wide space vintage freewheels! This item is perfect for that old Cinelli, Masi, Hetchins, Reynolds 531 or Columbus SL bicycle that you have. This item will be great for that vintage lightweight bicycle that you may be displaying at Classic Bicycles Auburn in June 2024 in Auburn Indiana at the famous Auburn Cord Duesenberg Museum The fine print: It is the responsibility of the buyer to determine if an item purchased from us is safe for use. Many items, especially vintage items, are best for display-only due to metal fatigue, other degradation from time, and vintage designs that were not subject to modern testing. If you purchase an item from us and you make a determination that the item is not safe for use, contact us for a replacement or refund. But don't use this reason is you simply changed your mind about your need for the item. You take care of us, and we take care of you! This item is being sold by Boulder Bicycle. We "failed retirement" and once again are in the vintage bicycle parts business. The staff at Boulder Bicycle has been selling vintage Campagnolo Nuovo Record and Super Record parts since the early 1990's! Note that while we failed retirement, we do plan to keep the business somewhat low key and on some days we don't ship orders. We update the handling time on all our ebay listing to reflect how quickly we will ship your order. If you purchase multiple items from us, we will do our best to ship items together and pass some $$'s back to you via refund through the ebay system. Do not ask us to report a lower-than-actual value for items shipped internationally. It is the responsibility of the buyer to pay all customs/vat/import fees. And please don't get mad at us if the postal service is slow - we take pride on getting your order packaged carefully and shipped on Wednesday. If the postal service is slow or has other issues, we'll help with tracking and moral support, but we aren't the postmaster. ------- A note about pricing - if we are interested in accepting offers for an item, we will enable price or "best offer" in the listing. Otherwise, do not message us to ask if we will accept a lower price. We review our pricing regularly and make changes based on product availability and market conditions. You will notice many of our prices are much lower than other sellers for similar items. We try to keep things fun and informative and fair for everyone. Unfortunately, we are getting older and grumpier as time goes on - sorry about that. So if you ask us if we will accept a lower price on an item that does not have "best offer" enabled, we may block you as a bidder. Now we have to go yell at a kid to get off our lawn......
