Your Drivetrain Is Only As Strong As Its Chain

    Reliable shifting
    by Anonymous

    I have tried various brands of chains on my Ultegra drivetrains. Some work, others don't shift as well. The Shimano chains are always reliable. Smooth shifting and durability similar to other brands.

    Normal chain, works fine
    by Peter

    Nothing special about the Shimano chains. I like that now they include a master link in each package. I try to remember and oil it about every 250 miles. Make sure to measure the "stretch" and change the chain before it reaches the worn mark.

    Shifts smoothly - just works
    by Anonymous

    I have tried using other brands of chains on Shimano systems. They work OK, but I just have slightly better shifting smoothness and few problems when I use the Shimano chains. The price is very affordable when you pick them up on a Daily Special.

    Arrived quickly in good order

    Purchased to replace Shimano Ultegra 11speed road bike chain. It arrived in good order and is working perfectly. Installation is in a specific orientation so chain engraved notations are facing outward. A chain break tool is required to remove links and properly size the chain by pushing out a link pin. Requires a surprising amount of force. Reconnecting using the supplied quick link which adds two link pins. In my case 112 total links = 110 plus two from quick link reconnection.

    This chain is working well for me. It shifts smoothly. It comes long. So I had to remove a short piece before installing it. Installation went fine.

    Just put this new chain on. It uses a quick link instead of the old pin technology. That seemed to simplify installation for me.

    I'll definitely pick this chain for my the replacement on another bike.

    Always have a fresh, waxed quality chain ready!

    The Shimano's CN-HG701 11 Speed XT/Ultegra Chains are flawless on the electronic shifting drivetrains. I routinely clean and then hot wax all my chains. They�re whisper quiet, the entire drivetrain stays clean as a whistle, and I keep several chains cleaned, waxed, and ready to go. Having several chains saves time as I can quickly clean and wax several chains at once, and no dirty chain lube products on me, or my bike!

    When things go wrong with your transmission it's easy to blame the components that YOU have manipulated.

    A bicycle is no different than a performance car.

    Tuning is critical. Micro adjustments are a fact of life, and a piss poor chain line is a recipe for early chain and casset failure.

    I only use original manufacturer parts because I understand that they are engineered to work together in harmony when properly installed.

    Semper Fi Shimano, you are the cat's meow!

    The ratio of longevity to weight can't be topped. I wax my chains, ride about 150 miles per week, and these never seem to wear out. Even if you happen to have a DuraAce groupset, I would use this chain.

    I just can't find a better chain than this for my Shimano 105 set-up. I ride mostly gravel and this chain hold up to constant sandstone and limestone gravel roads. I ride about 4000 miles annually, and go through 3-4 chains/year.
