Chain reaction

摘要

When the Great Britain Cycling Team was having problems with the chain it was using in the run-up to the Rio Olympics, it went in search of the right solution Way back in 1880, when the few cyclists then on the roads were more than likely riding high on a Penny Farthing, young engineer Hans Renold achieved a significant technical breakthrough when he invented the bush roller chain. This forward-looking chain technology solved many problems encountered at the time, and brought a new level of performance, efficiency and flexibility to the transmission of mechanical power. The basis of this technology is still used across the globe today.
