When you turn the pedals, you often take for granted that each link of your chain will go on grabbing each cog of your cassette for every mile of every ride. That is, until the day it stops, and you’re left standing in the shoulder questioning your life decisions with a stretched, broken, and useless chain. If you’re in this position, we’d recommend upgrading to Shimano’s XT/Ultegra CN-HG701 11-Speed Chain. Its anti-friction Sil-Tec coating and precise, reliable construction ensure long life and smooth pedaling. Whether you’re on the road, trail, or somewhere in the middle, the HG701’s asymmetrical design will keep you shifting consistently through your 11-speed drivetrain so you can focus on enjoying your ride.
Material: Sil-Tec coating
Links: 126
Connection: quick link
Compatible Components: Shimano 11-speed
Includes: quick link

Plopped in ultrasonic cleaner, then a bath of wax.
These are the best bargain, quality chain out there. I degrease them and then wax. They last about 4000 miles, with intermittent waxing to extend life and after riding in wet weather.

Its a chain, plain and simple
Its a chain, how exciting can that be? Basically if you have an 11 speed Shimano drivetrain this is the chain you’re going to want. I use it with 11 speed Ultegra and it works perfectly. Its a high-quality chain and I expect it to last. The speed link is ok, but again, its a chain so don’t get too excited. Ultimately I am mildly annoyed by how specific chains have gotten. Gone are the days of interchangeability, I think that’s a shame but oh well, time moves on. Basically, you don’t have a choice, if you have an 11 speed Shimano drivetrain, this is the chain you’re going to buy.

Most excellent shifting qualities
Until now I have never used Shimano chains. After purchasing this I will always use them. The shifting is so much better, especially when paired with my Ultegra groupo. I was definitely late to the party on this one.

Chain is excellent, but was sent the wrong size.
This is a great chain for the price, and I’ve ordered many of them. Can’t go wrong with a genuine Shimano chain. Just make sure that you check the link count. I order 126 link chains for my gravel bike, but last time I got a 116 (clearly marked as such on the box). Frustrating, as you have to go through the return process.

This is an 11/12 speed chain. I hope this helps.
FYI This chain is an 11/12 speed. Also, the HG writing isn’t on every link like other Shimano Chains. Just so happened that the links I looked at didn’t say HG. But as I was on the phone with the Shimano Customer service rep. We both found the HGx11 Stamped on the Chain. It’s really small. It also has the blue check mark on the box at the bottom. Haven’t ridden it yet. Will let you know when I do.

An often overlooked part that makes a big difference
There’s not a whole lot to say about a chain, but it is an item that can be overlooked in terms of shifting performance. I tried a no-name brand chain at the beginning of the season when I changed my cassette to a larger size and couldn’t figure out why the shifting was so terrible. I kept on going in circles trying to re-tune the derailleur and replace cables. Eventually I threw on the old chain (with an extra quick link) and the issues immediately went away. I didn’t think the chain would make such a huge difference, but lesson learned. Bough a new Shimano chain and have had zero issues since. Sure, there are lighter options out there, but I’m not willing to go through the headache finding out the performances sub-par. I’m sticking with the name brand from here on out and not looking back. Do yourself a favor and do the same, you won’t regret it.
