One of those non-glamorous non-carbon parts that is so underrated but so essential. Shimano knows WTF they're doing, and this chain is perfect. Works slick with my Ultegra groupset.
I use these chains on my road and mtb shimano equipped bikes. The Pin seems to work well, and I carry a master link in case of an emergency.
this is one of those parts that you will notice more if it dose not work, because you put it on and expect to forget it till you need to replace it. I would buy it again.
According to a high end Chain Treater that processes multiple brands, this is the fastest. Being Shimano's top-of-the-line Chain that's rated for Road, Mtn, and E-Bikes, I know it'll handle the loads. With the Quick-Link it's everything I need, I just give it a coat of Wax for great performance.
My old chain had about 7k miles and while I didn't think it was that worn, this new chain made a noticeable difference in lowering the noise.
like the dura-ace version on my ultegra gruppo - don't care about the weight just like smoother shifting on a pre-electronic system!
Bought this for my indoor trainer. Works great.
This chain is simply great. It is light, durable, and smooth. I run these with Silca wax and they are noiseless.
I don't like getting the cheapest chains for my bike. The Ultegra chain has a special surface treatment for higher performance and longer life, which leads to a better value. Performs, as advertised!
I could not find a 11 speed chain on the internet and our local bike store that is a specialized dealer has pretty much shut down do to the fact that they can't get anything from specialized bikes..... so I was grateful to find the the chain through Buke Tire Direct who I've always had a great ordering experience with for anything bicycling related. Thank you
Always reliable
I use these chains for cyclo cross racing. I need all the help I can get.
Well worth the extra cost. This chain has always worked well for me. It pedals well, it shifts well, it has never broken a link on me.
From personal experience I recommend it to anyone.
My go to chain. It runs quieter, smoother and lasts longer. Hollow pins make it lighter as well.
Dura-Ace chain, you can't beat it.
Quality, reliable chain
Its the best chain for Shimano drive trains. I stripped off the factory grease, applied a dry wax-based lube and installed on a Dura-Ace Di2 groupset. Works flawlessly as expected. Great price and not much of a premium over the Ultegra chain.
Shimano makes good chains that work well as long as you're religious about keeping them lubed. I use dyno juice as the wax crap gums up the chain, chain rings and cassette. Wipe down and lube every 100 miles and you'll get at least 2,000 miles before having to replace due to stretching.
This chain is not too expensive given the Dura-Ace name on it, and lasts a long time! I've been happy with it.
An upgrade of the chain on my bike. You can't go wrong with Shimano quality and Dura-Ace is their top of the line. It's quiet and smooth shifting.
Strip it, wax it, easy clean, easy service.
