thanks

Well it does say it'll fit your bike

Can't comment on the quality though, I don't know the manufacturer.

I haven't heard of that make of chain before so I'd give it a wide birth - do what TobyR says or have a look here:

DID are in my opinion one of the best chains - a DID chain and sprocket kit from Wemoto is £94 including VAT

O ring means the rings the hold the grease inside the rollers are little errr o shaped rings like doughnuts (mmm donuts) X ring are x shaped in cross-section and as such seal the grease in at two points (the corners of the x if you see what I mean) meaning less chance of the grease escaping and so extending the life of the chain.

Erm I just ordered a set of chain and sprockets and they've been delivered 23 hours after I ordered? Is that some sort of record?
