This chain moves my rear tire when I pedal and has a lot of shiny links. I highly recommend it.
I got this to replace the stretched out KMC chain that came with my Ultegra gearset. I figured Shimano chain with Schimano gears must be good. Installation was a breeze, the only issue was some occasional clicking the first hundred miles or so as the chain wore into the teeth, I'm guessing. Couple thousand miles now and no stretching, though I am keeping this one better cleaned and lubed than my old one.
I especially like the quick link to join the chain ends after sizing. Its not reusable (per Shimano) but it seems to be more foolproof than using a pin like older models required.
Ill use this chain when I need a replacement too.
Deal of the day. Long lasting chain
works well -- I usually get 10,000 miles plus on the Ultegra chain
Product as expected and works well !
A great chain that shifts well. It replaced my 105.
Never had a problem
It's more durable than the dura ace chain and the weight difference is negligible.
Hard to get quality 11 speed chain
Usually happy with Shimano and especially Ultegra, but this time I got a very noisy chain. (Yes, it was on the right direction.) It sounded like it was always rubbing the front derailleur, but it wasn't. After trying different lubes and fiddling with it, I noticed that the chain would jump on both of the front chainrings, and in several different places along the chain (i.e., not just a quicklink problem). I suppose I could have worked each link independently to find the culprits and see if I would get them to loosen up, but I just replaced it with a Sram, and now the bike is quiet as a mouse. Guess I just got a bad one.
No complaints. Have used for 3000 miles without a problem.
At a time when chains are hard to find, it is nice that these folks had one.
I use this chain on my Trek Madone 6.3 with Di2 Ultegra system. Works great, happy with performance.
I was disappointed in a chain that was recommended by another store, I mixed chain with cassette only because of the quick link on the chain I purchased at the time. Shimano now offers a quick link, thus I replaced my old chain with the Shimano and the chain made a noticeable difference, less noise and cleaner shifts.
The durability of the UltegraXT chain stands the test of hundreds of high torque elevation climbs on my Diverge, it's smooth and superb on my gear changes. Bravo
When it came time to replace my stock, worn down KMC chain, my mechanic suggested Shimano and a great suggestion it was. The Shimano is so smooth and quiet.
The Ultegra 11 speed chain was just what I need at a great price
Chain worked, functioned exactly as described
Easy to put on, no complaints.
