Parts KMC X11EL 11 Speed Chain

The KMC X11EL 11 Speed chain was born into existence by a need from riders.  Riders after a performance chain that still had solid pins for easier trailside repairs.  The X11EL has all the outer plate weight savings and mud shedding capabilities you could hope for and still provides ultra-smooth shifting from their X-Bridge technology.  The end result is a strong, quality chain with excellent shifting performance.
