ShimanoUltegra/XT CN-HG701 11-Speed Chain(Return to Product Page)

Solid chain. Easy to install

Had no issues with this chain, lasted longer than the dura ace model.

It's a genuine Shimano chain. No worries about short chain life or breakage like when purchasing from unrepeatable sellers.

I use this chain on one of my two 11-speed bikes

It is the only option on Ultegra and Durace according to Shimano. They last 1500-2000 miles and at $40-$50, they are not cheap. Great chain but I wish there were more options.

Smooth shifting, long lasting chain at a good price. I prefer not to mix brands on my drive train - Shimano cassette, crank and chain on my Di2 road bike. Likewise, I use only Sram chain, crank and cassette on my mountain bike. Compatibility insures everything works as it was engineered

Wish that this had come with a quick link like the SRAM does, but this does the job!

These are good chains at competitive prices. Life span depends On the rider , bike and hills.

If you have both 10 and 11 speed bikes then these chains work for both.

Slight upgrade to my 105, works well.

This is a replacement and Ultegra always works well.

Great chain for my 11s, glad that Shimano now includes a smart link.

Functional long life chain

This chain is exactly what I expected. Seems fine, and will go on my bike, when the old one is worn to the point of needing replacement. I'm sure it will work as advertised

precise & reliable with long life for a,great price

I installed a new drivetrain, crankset, cassette and this chain and I'm completely happy with it.

Deal of the day. Long lasting chain

works well -- I usually get 10,000 miles plus on the Ultegra chain

Never had a problem

A great chain that shifts well. It replaced my 105.

Usually happy with Shimano and especially Ultegra, but this time I got a very noisy chain. (Yes, it was on the right direction.) It sounded like it was always rubbing the front derailleur, but it wasn't. After trying different lubes and fiddling with it, I noticed that the chain would jump on both of the front chainrings, and in several different places along the chain (i.e., not just a quicklink problem). I suppose I could have worked each link independently to find the culprits and see if I would get them to loosen up, but I just replaced it with a Sram, and now the bike is quiet as a mouse. Guess I just got a bad one.
