Taken from www.daidocorp.com the manufacturers of D.I.D chains they first started 'roller chain' manufacture in 1951.

Hope that answers your question?

C.o.o.l.  :LolLolLolLol:

 - one came on the 77 goose i just bought and the bike looks fairly unused - rear dropouts suggest the rear wheel hasn't been off many times so I was wondering if the D.I.D. chain was era correct and maybe even original to the bike  ;)

Most likely era correct. Many motocross bike companys got into BMX when it only just started to grow :daumenhoch:
