The aspects we recommend considering when choosing the right chain for your bicycle are as follows:
- Number of speeds: chains are designed for specific drivetrains (from 6 to 13 speeds). Compatibility between the chain, cassette and derailleur is essential to ensure smooth, safe, and quiet gear shifts.
- Materials and treatments: models made of hardened steel or with wear-resistant coatings (such as DLC or Ni-Ti) offer greater durability and resistance to corrosion.
- Optimized design: chains with beveled or polished inner surfaces improve smoothness, reduce friction, and increase the lifespan of the drivetrain.
