IIRC the Viking had three tiny holes through each pin. The SL is the only chain I know of with a truly hollow pin, and I don't think there was ever a Ti version.

I thought Regina stopped making Ti chains long before they started making hollow-pin chains, thus all hollow-pin chains are steel.

Maybe the US-made Viking Ti chains were hollow-pin? I've never seen one. Anyway I think they never really made it to full production, after their prototypes were so soundly trashed in the cycling press.
