5.0 out of 5 stars Not a fan of Quick Links but the chain is great
UPDATE (03-2021):I have about 2,500K IRL miles on this new chain now and there is no sign of stretch and my old-school no-master-link connection has held up perfectly.ORIGINAL REVIEW:I've been racing since the late 70's, built frames in the 80's, was a bike shop manager and mechanic into the mid 80s, and was a support mechanic and motorcycle official for the Coors Classic "back in the day". I've replaced hundreds of chains, but until recently always with a chin break tool and fixed pins. I've never had a problem doing that, perhaps because I'd developed a technique, with fixed pins. "Master Links" were for 3-speed chains and commuter bikes. Now they're on racing chains? That may be fine for people who don't know how to properly replace a chain with a chain tool, but unless you have the proper tool (which I do happen to have), these master link chains can be hard to replace - completely contrary to the point of moving to master links in the first place.In any case, there is nothing wrong with the chain or the ML - I just don't like the ML. I did not use the ML in this case, I just used a chain break to remove the extra length of chain to fit my bike and connected the ends with the chain break. I suppose time will tell if reusing existing pins is a bad idea, but I've got about 300 miles on the new chain in the past 3 weeks and so far so go.The chain replaced the stock non-Shimano chain on a 2018 Cannondale SuperSix Evo training bike that was stretched longer than I've ever seen a chain stretch in about 3K miles. I've heard these Ultegra's tend to stretch easily too, so we'll see on that count as well.In the end the chain is what it is - Shimano Ultegra - and who am I to question Shimano's engineering expertise when it comes to chain linkages. However, I won't be using MLs any time soon unless I learn that reusing pins results in premature failure. But I do have a Park ML tool, so I can go either way. I also plan to continue using Ultegra for my training bikes and Dura Ace chains on racing bikes as I've never ridden on better chains.
5.0 out of 5 stars A Chain That Delivers
I recently upgraded to the Shimano Ultegra/XT CN-HG701 11-Speed Chain, and I couldn’t be happier. Here’s why:Smooth Shifting: The chain glides effortlessly between gears, ensuring seamless transitions during my rides. Whether I’m climbing steep hills or sprinting on the flats, the shifting is precise and reliable.Durability: This chain is built to last. Even after countless miles, it shows minimal signs of wear. I trust it to withstand the rigors of both road and off-road cycling.Quick Link Convenience: The included quick link made installation a breeze. No fussing with pins or special tools—just snap it into place, and you’re ready to roll. Kudos to Shimano for this thoughtful design.Abundant Links: Unlike some other chains, the CN-HG701 has plenty of links. I didn’t have to worry about sizing; there was more than enough to fit my drivetrain perfectly.Shimano Compatibility: As a Shimano enthusiast, I appreciate that this chain pairs flawlessly with Shimano components. The directional design ensures optimal performance, especially when combined with Shimano gears.In summary, the Shimano Ultegra/XT CN-HG701 11-Speed Chain delivers exceptional value. It’s a worthy investment for any cyclist seeking reliability, smoothness, and longevity. Don’t hesitate—grab one for your bike and experience the difference!
5.0 out of 5 stars The most important thing to know is this: These chains are REAL Shimanos, not fake!
The market is *flooded* with counterfeit Shimano chains, including being sold online by otherwise "legit" sellers & bike shops. I'm a serious road cyclist & train with racers, and most experienced, expert cyclists buy 90% of their parts & equipment online from Aliexpress or Bolo. The ONE thing everyone knows *never* to buy online are Shimano chains, because most of them are fake.So I was very happy to discover this on Bolo for about $10 bucks less than in a shop, and upon inspection it is 100% legit.Pro-tip: Watch some youTube vids about the subject. The problem is rampant, and fake chains LOOK very, very similar to the real ones, but they are weak, have substandard performance, and can be dangerous. Learn what to look for and how to identify counterfeits.

Smooth shifting front and rear. Everything Shimano makes for bikes is the best.
5.0 out of 5 stars Great product

4.0 out of 5 stars It's real—contrary to other reviews
How to spot the real deal. The chain I received was real, but that doesn't mean counterfeits aren't out there. Here is how to tell if it's real or not. A real Shimano chain has 4 equal cuts on each corner of the front side of the links (the side with the text) and 2 short and 2 long cuts on alternating sides on the back of the links. I've circled the cuts in the attached photos for reference; if your chain has the same cut marks on the front and back, it's a real Shimano chain.
5.0 out of 5 stars It's Shimano
Read the directions or better yet check YouTube for installation instructions
Uma corrente prática, fiável e com uma excelente relação qualidade/preço.
Claro que é uma corrente prática, porque é fácil de montar devido ao sistema quick link, mas o que faz esta corrente brilhar é a qualidade de materiais e construção da Shimano. É uma corrente que gera pouco atrito. Claro que haverá melhores, mas para o preço que esta corrente tem, está muito bem mesmo. E convenhamos, para ciclismo amador isto é mais do que suficiente. A corrente é forte, responde bem em qualquer circunstância, inclusive em subidas mais íngremes. As passagens de caixa são precisas, pelo menos eu tenho uma cassette de 11 velocidades, também da Shimano, e não tenho quaisquer problemas. Não posso dizer que sejam suaves, sobretudo se estiver a puxar quando mudo velocidade, mas isso normalmente é assim e não tem a ver com a corrente per si. Já se estiver numa zona plana, onde possa aliviar ligeiramente a potência naquele preciso momento da passagem, a mudança de velocidade faz-se de forma tão suave que praticamente não gera feedback.Em termos de durabilidade, não posso comentar porque depende do tipo de ciclismo que praticarem bem como do trato que lhe derem, nomeadamente no que respeita à manutenção. Alguns podem ter de a substituir com maior brevidade e outros nem por isso. No meu caso apenas refiro que entretanto já tenho umas largas centenas de quilómetros com a mesma corrente e continua a responder bem e sem quaisquer problemas.
