• Each chain includes a connecting pin for straightforward installation
• Super Narrow HG construction for precise engagement with Shimano HG sprockets
• Chromised rivet pins for improved wear resistance and extended service life
• 116 links per chain — suitable for most road and MTB frame lengths
• Weighs approximately 299 g per chain

Super Narrow Hyperglide Technology

The CN-HG53 is engineered around Shimano's Hyperglide tooth profile, which works in sync with HG-compatible cassettes and chainrings to guide the chain smoothly during shifts — particularly on downshifts under load. The super narrow outer plates reduce side drag and keep the chain line clean across all nine sprockets.

Workshop Bulk Pack

Packaged specifically for bike shops and mechanics, this 20-chain box simplifies inventory and reduces per-chain cost for high-volume service bays. Each chain arrives individually sealed with its connecting pin. Ideal for workshops running regular chain-replacement services on 9-speed bikes.

Compatibility & Fit

Compatible with all Shimano 9-speed HG drivetrains including Deore (MTB), Tiagra (road), Alivio, Sora, Acera, and Altus. Must be joined using a 6.5 mm connecting pin (included). Not compatible with 8-speed or 10-speed drivetrains. Cross-compatible with other brands' 9-speed HG-compatible cassettes and chainrings.
