This premium component transforms your drivetrain with innovative technology that ensures smooth, reliable shifts even under extreme pressure.

Unmatched Shifting Performance
The CN-M8100 chain features Shimano’s groundbreaking Dynamic Chain Engagement+ technology. Additionally, the extended inner plate significantly improves chain engagement and retention during shifts.

The chain responds instantly to gear changes, therefore allowing you to maintain momentum through technical sections.
Shimano CN-M8100 Superior Durability for Off-Road Adventures
Shimano engineered this chain with SIL-TEC treatment for extended longevity. Consequently, the chain resists wear and corrosion even in muddy or dusty conditions. The chromized roller link plates and pins further enhance strength and reduce friction. Thus, you’ll experience consistently smooth performance throughout your riding season.

Quick and Simple Installation
Setting up your Hyperglide+ chain couldn’t be easier thanks to the included SM-CN910-12 quick-link. However, remember that this quick-link is non-reusable by design.
