According to the product specialist
Pros
| Comes pre-waxed, so you can install it and hit the road! |
| Wax extends the life of the chain and the entire drivetrain. |
| Nickel-plated links make this chain very durable. |
| Compatible with SRAM and Shimano 12-speed systems. |
| The precise X-Series finish of the links enables smooth gear shifting. |
| This chain is extra durable due to a reduction of friction around the sprockets and a SIL-TEC coating. |
| With this chain you can shift quickly and smoothly, even in extreme conditions, due to the precise grinding. |
| The flat-top design increases chain strength, ensuring consistent and reliable shifting action. |
| A waxed chain reduces friction for maximum drivetrain efficiency! |
| The wax layer better resists dirt adhesion, so wear is minimal and the chain stays nice and clean. |
| Because this chain is made specifically for 12/13-speed SRAM AXS groups, shifting is very smooth. |
| The use of hollow pins makes the chain lighter. |
| As the chain comes factory-waxed, it attracts less dirt. |
| Double X technology makes the chain shift more efficiently under load. |
| Because the chain is factory-waxed, it runs more efficiently and saves wattage versus chains with lubrication. |
Cons
| This chain is nickel-plated, which means it makes more noise while cycling than a regular chain. |
| Not suitable as a replacement for SRAM Flat-top chains. |
-
| The wax coating requires extra attention and re-coating with heavy use but this does extend the chain's life. |
| The chain is only compatible with 12-speed systems; for other speeds you need a different chain. |
