Just a good chain with different look

- Michel, 6 December, 2022

Since I replaced my original sprockets and chain with Absolute Black ovals, I also wanted a new chain. I liked the gold color so I ordered this one. Original is also KMC so quality is equal or even slightly better. There may be a little more noise in the drive, usually when the chain is on the far left or right side but it doesn't bother me at all, I'm all about pedaling and shifting and that's fine.

Pros & Cons

gold color looks nice
good chain
shifts fine
makes at least more noise

Very good chain, better than Shimano

- HansPl, 5 May, 2022

I replaced my KMX X10EL after 3800km. My chain-wear-calibre fell through on the 0.75mm side, the 1mm side not yet, even when applying pressure. Replacing it then is recommended. The KMC chain makes my Shimano Ultegra shift better than with any Shimano chain. The noise the chain makes is substantial but that reduces quickly in use. The weight saving is marginal but in terms of chain beating on a bad road surface, there is a noticeable difference. It theoretically reduces the chances of a run-off. I fitted a KMC X10EL chain again. The price was keen at Mantel.

Pros & Cons

Better switching
Lifetime
Low weight
Noise (new chain)

- Jurre, 15 October, 2021

Fine chain have put it on my "se bike" and I still sometimes jump on that and the chain hasn't snapped so far. Easy to install if you know a bit about bikes. And the colour gold is delightfully ordinary

He is gold!

- Hidde, 6 July, 2021

Feel like an Olympic champion with this gold chain! Too poor yourself for a gold chain, probably because all your money goes to bike parts? Then upgrade your bike with a gold chain, so at least your bike can enjoy this luxury. You almost don't want to take your showpiece outside because the chain might get dirty, and people won't see how luxurious your bike with gold chain is. Of course, the chain is also super light, naturally runs and shifts perfectly (like all KMC chains), and with the missing link it is incredibly easy to install and fairly easy to re-use if you do want one less link. Did I mention it's gold!!!! If you keep the chain clean properly, it's also a great way to dazzle your opponents to get that extra advantage in a race. Finally, it works just as well on my campagnolo group as on the shimano, and I can even swap them between the two!

Shifts well, service life normal

- Hans Pl, 13 April, 2021

At 2250km, the 0.75mm side of my chain calibre drops between the links. The lifespan is similar to that of the Shimano Ultegra 6600 chains I was using. For better shifting, I choose KMC X10EL 10 speed again. I shift with Ultegra 3 x 10 speed and like to climb a lot.

switches well
service life is somewhat disappointing

Excellent Chains.

- Shane, 1 December, 2019

Chain stretched. Cassete well worn. Fitted new Shimano Ultegra cassete - purchased from Mantel. Fitted new KMC chain. Problems resolved, right products and excellent service from Mantel. I only use KMC Chains. Seriously longwearing and robust. Easy to maintain due to chain link . Keep them clean, keep them oiled, keep on rolling.

Pros & Cons

Chain link removal improves ease of maintenance.
Quality, robust and longwearing.
No cons.
