After reading several threads at this forum regarding chains, cleaning and lubrication, I have noticed a trend in the views of the forum responders that shy against the KMC chain. What is the reason?

The chain that came on my V-rex is a KMC Z9000 that is standard from RANS. I ordered the Hostel Shoppe Catalog and in the chain section do not see a reference to this chain, or a cross reference to another brand. I do see sram and shimano 11' chains.

Does the v-rex use an 11' chain?
What is the sram or shimano replacement chain number?
What is the difference between a PC59 and PC99?
What does HG stand for (Hollow Ground?)?
What constitutes a HG?

Thanks for your help.

Bent newby.
