FAQ
1. How can you offer such a good price?
We buy giant 500ft spools of it, and we developed a dispensing machine that lets us measure out and break the chain quickly and easily. It even puts it in the bag for us. We sell a lot of chain, so that's a good thing.
2. How do I measure how long my chain is?
There are several ways. One is to count the links. You only have to count the outer links, as inners and outers are always paired. Each (inner, outer) pair is 1 inch. A typical recumbent chain will be 10-12 feet, so it will have 120 to 144 or so pairs of links. That's countable, but tedious. There are some tricks to counting to make it easier, explained below. You can also remove the chain and measure it, but that's often a rather greasy thing to do.
3. How do I count my links?
- If you have a master link on your existing chain, rotate the pedals until the master link is someplace easily viewed, like the front edge of the front derailleur, or just as the chain goes into the rear derailleur. Slowly crank the pedals and count the outer links that go by.
- If you don't have a master link, or if it's hard to tell it apart from the other links, poke a tuft of yarn through a link to mark your starting point. Choose an easily viewed spot on the chain, like the front edge of the front derailleur, or just as the chain goes into the rear derailleur. Slowly crank the pedals and count the outer links that go by. You don't want a big piece of yarn, just a couple inches or so. It will be very obvious as things go around.
- Do the yarn trick, but look for the tooth count on your small chainring. Shift to the small ring, line the crankarm up with the front of the front derailleur, and put the tuft in there. Count the number of full revolutions until the tuft approaches the same spot. On the last revolution, you'll stop at the full revolution point. Count the number of links back to the tuft, and add that to the number that went by in full revolutions. With a typical small chainring, you won't have much to count.
- Shift into the big ring. Measure the distance in inches from the cassette up to the top of the big ring. Multiply that by two. Add half the number of teeth in the big ring, and you'll have a close approximation of the length in inches. Convert to feet and round up.

Customer Reviews
Overall rating: 5.0 / 5 from 24 reviews.
Buying chain by the foot allowed me to upgrade a drive train with wide range gearing for a gravel bike.
Arrived as ordered. Removed factory grease, hot melt waxed chain, cut to proper length and installed on my wife's Catrike Pocket.
Delivered as promised.
When you need 13.5 ft of chain 1 piece bulk is the only way to go. I’ve purchased this 4 times (I put a lot of miles on) and am never disappointed.
Bulk chain from T-Cycle is the only way to go when you need 14 feet of chain.
Satisfied customer. Quick delivery
Chain came packaged nicely and in excellent condition. Since I wax my chains I had to degrease the factory grease the chain came with, but once I did and put on the new chain, it has performed great on my trike. Since I had to order 13 feet of chain, the cost was higher than I had hoped, but at $9/foot I assume it’s a better deal than buying separate standard bike chains. I’m very pleased and have a lot of trust in Terracycle.
It’s great that they sell chain in bulk. I tell all my recumbent friends!
I like being able to get an actual 14' chain for my catrike rather than 3 spliced short chains.
The only place to purchase bulk chain for my bikes. Excellent price. Quick delivery.
Always responsive with quick shipping. Purchased from them several times.
These chains are great. The team at T-cycle are efficient and shipped my order quickly.
I love T-Cycle! It’s a critical source for parts for my recumbents!
I wanted one long length with only one connector link and that's what I got! Have only used KMC chain for many years.
Just what I needed - priced right and customer service was great in helping me get my order right.
Thanks and hi to Pat Franz and Eddy
The ONLY place to offer bulk chain required for recumbent bikes. Easy to order, competitive price and packed expertly. My go to was place for 9 and 10 speed chain!
Product selection, ordering, shipping/receiving experience from T-cycle has been a pleasure each time I hace ordered. No better place to go for full length recumbent trike chains.
Needed to make changes to my online order. Casimir and Aaron were very helpful in correcting my order. Excellent customer service!. Good quality products and timely shipment. Very pleasant experience.
Makes more sense and is cheaper than combining three 'regular' chains (which is what I used to do). Hard to say for sure (since I'm riding a trike now instead of a bike), but I think it's lasting longer as well.
I bought the chain as a replacement for the chain that came with my Catrike Expedition. The original chain is still working well, so the replacement is still in the bag and waiting to be installed. It looks great but I haven’t had to install it yet. Delivery was prompt. Price was right. Happy customer so far.
The only place to buy bulk chain is T-Cycle! High quality KMC 10 speed and 9 speed chain is perfect for my long wheelbase recumbent bikes. Great price. Quick shipping. Excellent product!
Fast, friendly, personalized sales and customer support. I have always enjoyed shopping for my recumbent parts here.
