Upfront I prefer old school chains.
Yes they require more maintenance. Upfront I love cleaning the chain on my bike. Remember O ring chains need to be replaced every 4 years regardless of mileage or riding style
The rubber o-rings get old. It takes about 2 hp more to spin an o-ring chain than an Racing chain.
Just my opinion
