Exactly what I needed for a great price.

I used this 11-speed chain with FSA chainrings and Ultegra rear mech to replace my stretched one. The value is worth the upgrade for the weight weenies since it saves a few grams from the 105 or Tiagra chain with hollow pins and rollers. Comes with a quick link for easy installation.

Thank you for your feedback.

Good function and durability

I'm running this chain with Force derailleurs and Shimano cassette and chainrings. Shifting is crisp, and the chain shows minimal stretchwear after 2500 miles. Just be sure to clean and lube the chain regularly. Also, the master link made chain installation easy, I set it up just as I've always done with other brands' chains and didn't need a special tool.

Thank you for your feedback.

Beat chain you can buy.

Great chain! Great price at BTD. Quiet, smooth shifting & nickel plating makes em easier to keep clean (also looks great).

Great product

This is an amazing option/upgrade. I am currently running this dura-ace chain with a 105 groupset and it works flawlessly. It also runs very smoothly and quiet as a waxed chain!

Thank you for your feedback.

Can't beat Shimano!

Put this on my 11 speed Ultegra Di2 bike to replace another brand chain that broke after a few months of riding. This chain is light, shifts great, and has lasted for 9 months of Colorado riding so far.

Thank you for your feedback.

smooth shifting complete with power link

like the dura-ace version on my ultegra gruppo - don't care about the weight just like smoother shifting on a pre-electronic system!

Thank you for your feedback.

Proven performance

The dura ace chain was tested by Friction Facts as the lowest drag productive chain- and its not an expensive upgrade to get another f Er watt or so - so I stick with the dura ace chains for both my race bikes and even on my non race bikes

Thank you for your feedback.

Sweet Chain

According to a high end Chain Treater that processes multiple brands, this is the fastest. Being Shimano's top-of-the-line Chain that's rated for Road, Mtn, and E-Bikes, I know it'll handle the loads. With the Quick-Link it's everything I need, I just give it a coat of Wax for great performance.

Thank you for your feedback.

Dependable and consistent chain

Well worth the extra cost. This chain has always worked well for me. It pedals well, it shifts well, it has never broken a link on me.

From personal experience I recommend it to anyone.

Thank you for your feedback.

works well

this is one of those parts that you will notice more if it dose not work, because you put it on and expect to forget it till you need to replace it. I would buy it again.

Great chain, especially for the price.

This chain is not too expensive given the Dura-Ace name on it, and lasts a long time! I've been happy with it.

Nice quiet smooth shifting chain

An upgrade of the chain on my bike. You can't go wrong with Shimano quality and Dura-Ace is their top of the line. It's quiet and smooth shifting.

This chain is simply great. It is light, durable, and smooth. I run these with Silca wax and they are noiseless.
