Decent Chain
Decent Chain at a decent price. The only downside is they are not very durable wearing out quite quickly despite regular cleaning an lubrication. Replacing the chain restored my shifting to nice precise clean shifting. At the price though it is not too onerous to replace frequently.

It is a chain and it works!
Not a great deal to say, bought as replacement as previous chain had done some 8000km and had bought new wheels with a new rear sprocket. No problems in fitting and has caused no problems since fitted.

Nice chain but don't like the short connector pin
This is a good value chain, but it comes with a very short connector pin that I have always struggled with when you have to shorten the chain. I like the longer pins supplied with more expensive Shimano cains.

Comes lubricated?
The chain comes in a sealed bag and is impregnated with an oily liquid: is necessary to clean it and lube it with a proper chain lubricant, or it is intended to use it right out from the bag? Thanks!
Asked by: lluisb
The coating on the chain is an anti-corrosion coating for transit and is best to remove this and re-lubricate the chain once fitted.

Can i use this chain for spare links?
I already have this chain (groupset), it is too small for my 11-32 set up when on the front large crank and 32 on the rear, i need 2 or 3 extra links, please advise.
Asked by: LippyRR
Shimano 116 link chains should cover your combination and length needs.
If you are running a Shimano 11-32t cassette it is important to run the Medium Cage RD [I assume you have this and not a 'Short Cage'. This will give the correct clearance on the back and allow correct gate and guide alignments.
I have run the 105 drivetrain [Standard Double 10 and 11-speed] as well as Ultegra and Dura Ace [Standard Double and Compact with 11-28, 12-25 and 11-32t on the cassettes.
In all of these I have never found the 116 link chain inadequate.
Additionally, although you will get 'feedback chatter' from your drivetrain [especially from Compacts] when you reach the extreme combinations you should not have issues selecting your gears.
I wonder whether you are running a large cassette on the back and a large ring on the front. If you are climbing big hills I would have thought a Compact Crank on the front would be the way to go. Or, you could use an intermediate Double with 52t x 36t on the front.
Perhaps the 11x32 and 52x36 on the front would be your dream combination.
As I mentioned above, remember you will need a Medium Cage Rear Derailleur when running any cassette ring larger than 28t. The maximum recommended for the common Short Cage RD is 28t.
Most riders understand that the 'big-big' combination is very trying on your components and reduces wattage results and should be avoided. However, it should be selectable without issues, if you select it by mistake.
It is important to have your bike set-up correctly. This will result in the best ride experience/performance from your kit.
We love building bikes with bespoke set-ups.

Chain pin?
What chain pin would I buy for the 105 11 speed chain?
Asked by: maddog083
For cleaning, maintenance and general ease of use you would do well to buy KMC SpeedLink. This lets you remove your chain for proper cleaning and re-lubing.
See below.

Does this change come with a chain pin?
When installing my Shimano 105 groupset i messed up the chain and therefore need to buy a new one. The chain that came with the groupset only had a tiny little pin just sitting in one side of the link. It wasn't one of the pins that pushes through then snaps off. If this doesn't come with a pin what pin should I buy? Also when fitting the chain to my 105 5800 groupset will I need to take any links out? I am running the 52 - 36 11 - 32
Thanks

This should come with a suitable link pin.

Number of chain links?
I have a shimano 5700 11/25 cassette, 50/34 chain-ring and a RD5701 short arm derailleur. How many chain links would you recommend for this set-up?
Asked by: richtheblade
The chain length also depends on the chainstay length of the bike you have.
Instructions are included with the chain but a handy article can be seen here:
