The Shimano Deore CN-M6100 chain provides fast, precise and smooth shifting in both directions even under highest loads thanks to its precisely formed contact surfaces toDynamic Chain Engagement+chainring andHyperglide+cassette teeth. In addition, theSIL-TECcoated inner plates increase the durability noticeably.
Dynamic Chain Engagement+ is a special gear teeth profile designed for use in 1-speed chainring configurations for XC, Enduro and Trail Riding. It gives more chain retention and smoother pedaling – even over bumpy terrain. Chain retention of any gear will reduce abrasion and worn out.
The conventional Hyperglide technology ensures smooth shifting upwards thanks to small shifting ramps, which guide the chain towards the next larger sprocket. Also Hyperglide+ uses this functionality but applies it in the opposite direction, too, preventing the chain from falling down when shifting downwards. The result is a smooth and consistent shifting in both directions, free of vibrations and without disrupting the cadence.
SIL-TEC is an advanced surface plating technology to increase both performance and durability. It adds a low friction surface treatment that runs smoother and lasts longer.
