The Super Narrow SIL-TEC HG-X11 Chain (11-speed) HG-601 has been improved for tougher e-bike use. It features an inner-plate treated with SHIMANO's ultra-low friction 'SIL-TEC' surface treatment. This chain offers the same durability as a current 10-speed chain. It's a system-engineered drivetrain component for optimal power transfer, ensuring smooth and precise front and rear shifting. It's a directional chain suitable for Road, MTB, and E-Bike disciplines. With a weight of 257g, it comes with a Quick Link.

Using your Shimano CN-HG601 chain is easy. First, make sure your bike's drivetrain is clean. Attach the chain to the gears using the included quick link. When riding, you'll notice smooth shifting and good power transfer. For maintenance, clean the chain regularly with a bike cleaner and a brush. Make sure to dry it well. Lubricate it with a good quality bike chain lubricant after cleaning. Avoid over - lubricating as it can attract dirt. When not in use, store your bike in a dry place to prevent the chain from rusting. If you notice any signs of excessive wear, like difficulty in shifting, it might be time to replace the chain.
