CN-HG901 Chain

Product Information

The Shimano CN-HG901 isn't just another chain; it's the brand's top-tier 11-speed offering, engineered for peak performance across road, mountain, and gravel disciplines. What truly sets it apart is the SIL-TEC surface treatment, a fluorine-based plating applied to the inner, outer plates, and rollers. This significantly reduces friction and repels contamination, meaning smoother operation, extended component life, and less frequent maintenance. Its asymmetric HG-X11 plate design ensures precise, reliable shifting, even under demanding conditions, and it's robust enough for high-torque e-bike applications.

Designed with hollow pins for weight reduction without sacrificing strength, this chain offers a 5.62mm width optimized for 11-speed systems. It’s compatible with a wide range of Shimano 11-speed drivetrains, from Dura-Ace and XTR to Ultegra, 105, GRX, XT, and SLX. A quick link is included for easy installation and removal, making drivetrain maintenance a breeze.
