Since this product is a clip joint, there is no need to crimp or press-fit the joint, making installation easy.

How was your experience with it?
DID's RaceChain 520ERT2 and 520VT2 (Driving application:Motard race, Touring) The following are comparative impressions with
Product weight
DZ2=ERT2<VT2
VT2 would also be on the thinner side of the Seal chain, but it was no match for the Non-seal Chain.
・Friction
DZ2=ERT2<VT2
VT2 also had less Friction in the seal chain, but was no match for the non-seal chain.
The difference between DZ2 and ERT2 was not that great.
Life span
DZ2<ERT2<VT2
This is a guess, but ERT2 seemed to still be usable even after 2 Season of use. DZ2 was also not stretched after one Enduro race.
Plating was as good as each of them.
Peace of mind in Touring
DZ2=ERT2<VT2
Seal chain has an overwhelming advantage. However, no matter how hard we drove, the Non-seal Chain's Clip never blew up.
In addition, the above ERT2 (Non-seal Chain dedicated to Motocross) and VT2 (Seal chain for MOTARD and Enduro race) are replaced by DID's Lineup, respectively, but I assume that there is no Large difference from the above impresario in terms of Friction.
This product, DZ2, is for those who want to enjoy off-road driving in a cost-effective manner. We felt that the DZ2 is suited for the use for "Off-road driving with a good cost performance.
[Included Parts:were they on?

[Was there anything that disappointed you?
None
[Maintenance hang].
Non-seal chains have the merit that they can be removed and washed with washing oil, so they can be washed very beautifully if only the waste oil disposal method is carefully considered and implemented.
After washing and drying, be sure to lubricate.
Lubrication should be done after each run whenever possible to extend the life of the chain.
Chain lube for Off-Road or lubricant for CRE556etc. (Although the splattering is great.) can be used to relatively reduce the adhesion of mud and sand.
