Technology
HG Chain Design for HyperGlide+
HyperGlide+ dedicated chain delivers greater chain retention, improved shifting efficiency, and smoother transmission over rough terrain.
Benefits and features:
- Improved chain retention encourages more aggressive all-terrain riding and relieves chain-issue anxiety
- Smoother drivetrain transmission and enhanced shifting performance sharpens riders’ concentration and improves acceleration
- Better chain engagement cuts abrasion, reduces maintenance, and lengthens the lifespan of the chain
Revamped HG chain features an extended inner link plate that connects seamlessly with new chainring tooth shape for ultra-efficient drivetrain performance.
This design change reduces the vibrations normally caused by the inner and outer chain plates rolling onto the chainring, and provides better chain engagement, stronger retention, and smoother pedaling.
Quick-Link
Tool-free assembly for current 11-speed chains provides great convenience to user. (TL-CN10 is also available for more convenient assembly.)
