Default Trailboss chain messed up

Alright, I accidentaly drove over a tree stump with my 4wheeler, and my chain got messed up. I tried to fix it and didnt help it much, i think i might have bent a sprocket. so im just going to get a new chain and sprocket. so to my point, im trying to decide weather to get an O ring chain or not, the O ring chain is about $20 more, I currently have a non O ring, and havent had a problem with it in the past. So what are the benifets of and O ring chain, and do you think i should get one or not.

Thanks alot.

I think you should get an O-ring chain. The O-rings are supposed to keep the oil in and the dirt out so they last longer.

Yes, get an o-ring chain and replace both front and rear sprockets, if you dont repace them all together it causes exessive wear.
