Shimano SLX CN-M7100 Chain, 12-Speed, 118 Links, Silver
The Shimano SLX CN-M7100 chain is engineered for modern 12-speed Shimano MTB drivetrains, delivering fast, precise shifting and dependable chain retention under load. Optimized for use with SLX M7100 components, this chain features Shimano’s advanced plate shaping and SIL-TEC surface treatment for reduced friction and long service life.
This version is shorter than the standard 126-link chain, making it ideal for select builds but requiring careful compatibility verification before installation.
