I’ve been using the Shimano XT M8100 12-speed chain for a while now, and I’m really happy with it. The shifting is super smooth and quiet, even when I’m pushing hard on rough trails. You can tell Shimano’s HYPERGLIDE+ tech makes a difference, it just clicks into gear perfectly every time.
The quick link made installation easy, though I learned it’s only good for one use, so keep that in mind. I did have to shorten the chain to fit my bike, but that’s normal. It works best with Shimano’s 12-speed setup, so if you’re mixing brands, it might not be perfect.
Overall, this chain feels durable and well-built. It’s held up well so far, and I’d recommend it to anyone running a Shimano 12-speed drive train who wants reliable, smooth shifting.
good price and fast shipping
