KMC Z8.1 Nickle-Plated Chain Description:
The KMC Z8.1 Nickle-Plated Chain is a versatile chain that is optimized for older 6 and 7 speed drivetrains as well as 8 speed Shimano IG drivetrains. The durable z-bridge shaping of the plates in addition to extensive chamfering of the edges of the plates help this chain to mesh better and more quickly to gear teeth, resulting in a much better shifting quality. Solid pins that are rugged and hold up to aggressive shifts under heavy loads. Last but not least, these chains are non-directional and will come with a reusable missing link connector, so if you prefer to take chains off for deep cleaning or need to do a trailside repair it is easy to install, remove, and service this chain.

- Chain is compatible with Campagnolo, Microshift, Shimano, or SRAM 6 and 7 speed drivetrains, and Shimano IG 8 Speed drivetrains
