Reviews over the

Shimano Ultegra & XT HG-701

Fast delivery.

Was quickly assembled.

Broken in half after 2 weeks

Pros & Cons

Part ordered, dispatched and delivered very quickly and at a reasonable price.

I always buy this chain. With me, after about 2,000 km, the chain is at 0.75%. This is mainly because I also bike through rain and wooded areas.

Pros & Cons

Pros & Cons

Better value than KMC

Good-quality products. Easy to assemble.

Pros & Cons

Nickel all the way: order delivery installation

Mounting with the missing link is easy and quick but if you loosen your chain a few times to wax it or the like, you should be aware that the missing link becomes a weak spot. Otherwise, a quiet chain that will last a long time with proper maintenance.

Pros & Cons

Easy to install with the quick-release fastener, you just need to adjust the length by removing a few links

See my aforementioned experiences.

Pros & Cons

Great product meets expectations

Pros & Cons

Good chain at the right price.

Pros & Cons

Works exactly as expected, nothing bad to say. Had no issue cutting the chain and using the quicklink. I actually cut my chain too short but was able to add a few links back to get the desired chain length. One of the links was a bit stiff at first but with some tricks and a bit of lube, that quickly went away. Very satisfied.

Pros & Cons

Very good value for money...I change my chain every 5000 kms (3 times a year) and am always satisfied with your product.

Very satisfied, good value for money. Nothing to complain about.

Pros & Cons

Pros & Cons

Shimano chain, as per description. Met expectations.

Pros & Cons

It is a very good option when changing the chain, as Shimano groupsets are compatible.

Shimano HG-701 11-speed chain is perfect for my Ultegra set up, I have been using them for years.

Pros & Cons

Great chain and always competitively priced at Mantel. And that's not entirely unimportant when you wear out 3 in a year

Pros & Cons

Very high quality,chain convenient to assemble by the supplied link.

Pros & Cons

Fine chain

I've tried several types of chains and always fall back on Shimano chains. I'm especially happy with the HG-701 chain.

Pros & Cons

Great product, easy to change

Product fully meets expectations

Pros & Cons

Very good chain but it doesn't last very long for me, or so it seems to me. I do about 4000 km on it

You put the chain on just like that in combination with the supplied link

Pros & Cons

Chain was immediately at the right length which was a coincidence, set up with pins went well. Fine instructions for use.

Pros & Cons

Recommended chain but not the right length, 116 links is too long for the 105 groupset. Mantel delivered quickly.

Pros & Cons

Standard shimano

I have been replacing my chains annually for several years and have never been disappointed with this brand.

Pros & Cons

Shimano chain runs as expected

Pros & Cons

Just fine. I don't use any other brand and type.

Pros & Cons

With instructional videos (plenty to be found online) easy to assemble. Only on the fastener is an arrow that should be in loop direction, but then the other is in opposite direction anyway....

Pros & Cons

Meets (high) expectations. Runs fine, no nasty noises.

Pros & Cons

Good value for money, although I have to check its durability in relation to other brands.

Pros & Cons

Like all Shimano products, quality, durability and reliability.

Pros & Cons

An ultegra chain at a great price

Pros & Cons

I prefer to use an ultegra chain because it's cheaper than the dura ace and I change it more often to keep the same sprocket set (on average 3 chains on 1 cassette).

Pros & Cons

Fine, lasts reasonably long. Had to change on the road bike after 3500km, when the chain was stretched 0.75

Chain lasts a long time

Pros & Cons

Changing my same brand bicycle chain

Quality chain, good durability.

Pros & Cons

Pros & Cons

Top value on ultegra

Pros & Cons

Always taken this chain, value for money, smooth passages. Could do better in terms of longevity, control with the wear indicator rather quickly at 0.75 only on the road. ps; I avoid chain crossovers, and I'm also a compact rider.

Pros & Cons

The chain with link is super that is better as a break pin to connect the chain .

Na-winterse kettingwissel waardoor alles weer soepel draait. Met korting kwam de ketting op nog geen 40 euro uit, perfect!

Pros & Cons

Meets expectations, Shimano quality, is always good

Pros & Cons

Really top-notch, with no noise and normal service life when serviced regularly!

Pros & Cons

This gain is exactly what you want from the Utlegra series.

Pros & Cons

Ultra fast and fully compliant

Pros & Cons

Excellent chain ,original,for shimano ultrega

Pros & Cons

Silent chain, easy to install

Pros & Cons

Does what it's supposed to do. Runs nice and quiet on a GRX 810 (the previous chain made some noise). Let's see how long it lasts. It's pretty heavy, hope this means it will last too. We'll see.

Pros & Cons

Good value for money.

Pros & Cons

Top quality as usual from Shimano's Ultegra line

Pros & Cons

Easy assembly and have been happily driving this type for years.

Pros & Cons

For several years I have been very satisfied with this type of chain. Excellent lifespan of over 4000 km with regular maintenance. Good to keep clean. By means of the quicklink assembly is a piece of cake.

Pros & Cons

Good chain and with combo deal even cheaper

Pros & Cons

Dr put on and shifts like new again

Easy to assemble and just a good chain

Pros & Cons

Pros & Cons

Pros & Cons

Piece of cake to put m on. Also for the first time. Bike runs like new again.

Pros & Cons

An easy-to-assemble chain that always shifts well and instantly.

Pros & Cons

Wonder how long this one will last

Pros & Cons

Use the shimano ultegra chain standard, good chain, somewhat pricey though

Pros & Cons

The Shimano 11 speed chain of Ultegra quality has high wear resistance, long life and with the "quick release" easy to change and mount. It is a relatively expensive chain. On the other hand, it is a chain of quality.
