Fast gear shifting
This Shimano HG-701 Ultegra & XT chain ensures super fast shifting performance. Its design has a dual focus: to make gear changing as fast as possible, and to reduce the chance of the chain jumping off. Shimano has also done its best to make the chain as quiet as possible while you're cycling.
Increased durability
The Sil-Tec coating on both the inner and outer links ensures a long service life and improved shifting performance. The inner link was specifically designed to improve contact with the cogs, making the chain shift better under strain without wearing out faster.
Need tools?

The perfect chain for everyday and racing use
The perfect chain to use with Shimano 105 (or even Ultegra). It has an excellent service life, and the quick-link supplied makes fitting it very easy; the quick-link is also very handy for removing the chain for a thorough clean of the bike and chain.

Pros & Cons

Good and well-packaged
As I am used to from shimano I have been using chains from shimano for years
Pros & Cons
5 / 5
Solid and high-quality chain that is easy to maintain
Bought as a replacement for my Shimano 105 chain. From the packaging immediately degreased well and lubricated with Squirt Chain Lube after fitting. Chain stays nice and clean and seems to rust less than the 105 chain. Just run the garden hose (no high pressure) after every ride, dry with an old towel and lubricate a bit.
