The Ultegra chain now sells at a lower price and just seems to work best on my Ultegra drivetrain.
Lasts several thousand miles and spins smooth. Works great with Shimano drivetrain.
This chain include a quick link for connecting the chain, not the usual connecting pin. Unlike quick links made by other manufacturers this one seems to require a special tool to secure the connection. I tried pulling on the chain which works with other brands but I could not get a connection that didn't simply fall apart when the tension was released. Why couldn't they have included an old fashioned connecting pin that requires nothing more than a conventional chain tool?
This stuff just keeps getting better
Three thumbs up for a new smooth running & shifting Ultegra chain
As a heavier (190lbs all muscle) cyclist and the fact that I ride a lot of steep hills I tend to go through chains a little faster than the average person. This chain hold up well and I would recommend the Ultegra or the Dura Ace chain. If money is tighter go with the Ultegra.
I like the smoothness, durability, and price of Shimano Ultegra chains. This one came with a quick link instead of a breakaway pin. Once I figured out how to install it, it was easier than the pin. You don't need the pliers. Just line up the link, and put pressure on the cranks to snap it into place.
used it on dura ace trek madone. works great.
dependable
i use ,y bike daily road cycling, it's OEM replacement parts at a great price shipped to my door. works as expected.
Easy to install, super smooth shifting.
Replaced my previous chain and couldn't be happier! The performance of this chain has been nothing but outstanding!
Nice shifting chain. Quite expensive. Of course, how many choices do you have in 11 speed chains? Here in Portland Oregon ,expect about 2000 miles wear in the summer. Much less in the winter if you ride in all conditions. We have highly abrasive grit locally, so expect better wear in more benign environments.
Replaced the chain as part of my spring cleaning and tuning process.
Great product. Works great with my Ultegra derailleurs and cassettes. But when you screw up the chain length, you will need either 1or 2 extra connecting pins, depending on whether it is too long or short, respectively.
I will buy this product all the time because I trust it
Durable, long-lasting chain at a reasonable price point. Can't go wrong with this one!
It's a chain. It works with all 11-speed systems. I use it with SRAM, because it's slightly less noisy than SRAM chains. And it (finally!) has a quick link.
Always works
Provides for precise shifts. Peddling feels smooth. A little tough getting the tight tolerance quick link on. But overall a great chain.
