Shimano HG71 6/7/8 Speed Chain

The Shimano HG71 chain is the ideal, reliable choice for cyclists with a 6, 7, or 8-speed drivetrain, whether on a road bike, mountain bike, or commuter bicycle. This chain is specifically designed to work optimally with Shimano Hyperglide (HG) cassettes and sprockets. The special shaping of the inner plates ensures smooth and precise shifting performance, even under load, which is essential for an enjoyable and efficient cycling experience.

Reliability and durability are key aspects of the CN-HG71. Shimano has ensured a robust construction with a chromizing treatment on the link pins and a heat treatment of the rollers, pins, and plates. These treatments enhance wear resistance and corrosion resistance, resulting in a longer lifespan for the bicycle chain. Furthermore, the unique 'mushrooming' of the pins provides unsurpassed side-plate retention, allowing the chain to far exceed the BS/ISO standard for breaking force.

What makes the HG71 chain additionally versatile is its official classification for e-bike use. This makes it an excellent option for anyone who uses powerful assistance yet requires a reliable and smoothly shifting chain. With a standard 116 links, the chain is ready for installation on most bikes, and for convenience, a Quick Link (if supplied by the retailer) is often the easiest option for tool-free assembly. Always check the required number of links for your specific bicycle.
