Does anyone know the number of links for a Nireeka Prime S 1500 bike. I have gotten answers from 116 to 128.
Big variance. I have the Shimano M4100 group set with 10 speeds. Nireeka has switched it up since I bought the bike. They are of no help.

Thank You

That’s a shame. There are no specs/manuals around for your bike?

My guess is that this KMC e10 10-speed chain would work. You have to size it (as in count the links) against your existing chain and you need a chain link removal tool as well as a chain “breaker” pliers tool.

 
My comment on the Park Tool vid is that you have to count the links, not just rely on side-by-side length. Chains stretch, and old will not match new in length with the correct number of links.
I wasn't commenting on your post, I was replying to the OP.
I'm making some assumptions... but I figured he knows how to count and that he might not have a chain now to reference.
 
Even if somebody answers the OP with their Nireeka chain length there's no way to know if their bike is from before or after the brand changed the specs.

The right way is in the Park Tool vid Gionni linked to. That way works whether or not the chainring and/or cassette have been changed from the original spec.

The only thing I do different from the first method in the video is that I don't have a surgically clean butcher block workbench just for sizing chains, so I find it easier to hang the old and new chains from a nail and let gravity help me line them up straight.
