XX1 Eagle Hollowpin Chain

At first glance, this chain may seem ordinary, but its innovative engineering sets it apart. This remarkable new chain design enables a gear range typically seen only in 2 - chainring drivetrains. It's a key factor in the Eagle drivetrain's super - smooth, accurate, long - lasting, and quiet operation. The chain links have a gentle curve, no sharp corners or bevels, which cuts down on noise, friction, and wear on chainrings and cassette cogs. The flatter plate design ensures more consistent chain riveting and greater overall strength. HARD CHROME technology prolongs the chain's prime performance time. The Titanium Nitride coating on the Gold and Black models resists corrosion and further minimizes friction.

Using this Eagle XX1 Hollowpin Chain is easy. First, make sure your bike's drivetrain is clean before installation. Simply thread the chain through the chainrings and cassette following the normal path. When riding, you'll notice its smooth operation right away. As for maintenance, regularly clean the chain with a mild degreaser and a brush to remove dirt and grime. After cleaning, dry it thoroughly and apply a good quality chain lubricant. Avoid using excessive force on the chain when shifting gears to prevent premature wear. Check the chain's tension regularly and adjust it if needed. The Gold and Black models with the Titanium Nitride coating are more resistant to corrosion, but still keep them dry to maximize their lifespan.
