ČZ Řetězy as one of a few manufacturers offer the world class products used also in the karting sector. The specific branch of the karts requires the chains having high resistance against wear, mechanical stress, and high revolutions.
The special chain 219 has been developed for the karts and the chain is similar in design with the MX chains from the MOTOCROSS/SUPERMOTO series – the alpha and omega here is the transmission of maximum possible performance while caring less to lifecycle of the chain transmission. The 219 chains are manufactured in racing versions only. For endurance kart races is used the 219 OR chain sealed with O-rings.
