Shimano XT / Ultegra CN-M8100 12-Speed Chain

The Shimano XT CN-M8100 chain is the most advanced chain option for any cyclist utilizing a 12-speed drivetrain and demanding top performance. While this chain is primarily part of the XT mountain bike groupset, its technical specification is broadly compatible and its robustness is valued by both MTB riders and some road bike cyclists (Ultegra R8100 series). This chain is the core of the revolutionary Hyperglide+ system, which ensures unparalleled fast and smooth shifting in both directions, even under the heaviest load.

The longevity and durability of the CN-M8100 are exceptional thanks to the superior SIL-TEC surface treatment. SIL-TEC is an ultra-low friction coating applied to the inner plates and rollers. This technology minimizes wear, reduces friction and noise levels, allowing the 12-speed chain to last significantly longer and deliver consistent, reliable performance. This makes the XT chain a cost-effective investment for aggressive off-road use as well as intensive road training.

Delivered standard with 126 links, the M8100 chain is ready for installation on most modern bicycles. For user convenience, this Shimano XT chain is supplied with the Quick Link connector (SM-CN910-12), allowing for fast and simple assembly and disassembly. It is essential to install the chain in the correct running direction, as the asymmetric and directional design is crucial for optimal Hyperglide+ performance.
