Review: Shimano Chain HG71 on 8 speed cassette - Works on 8 speed cassette nice quality included quick release link for maintenance. Old chain was badly worn so well overdue
Review: Perfect replacement chain - I installed this chain on my 7-speed fat-tire ebike. It was exactly as described and the identical length of the old chain. The quick link was quite challenging to install, but my persistence paid off. I'm pleased with this product!
