To meet even the highest demands, KMC has designed the chains of the X-Series with the specific characteristics of Shimano, SRAM and Campagnolo drivetrains in mind. The outstanding property is the Double X-Bridge construction with precisely manufactured plates that feature dynamically chamfered edges. The result are gear changes that border on perfection and maximum smoothness. And thanks to the use of hollow rivets as well as of perforated inner and outer plates, the XSL models also save every unnecessary gram of weight.
This version of the X11 SL chain also has a special titanium-nitride coating, which not only impresses with its golden appearance, but also with its incredibly smooth and hard surface. The premium chain is given the finishing touch with GO WAX chain wax, which effectively improves shifting performance with its friction-reducing properties and extends the service life of the drivetrain.

- corrosion-resistant Ti-N Gold coating
- treated with GO chain wax
- compatibility: 11-speed shifting systems
- dimensions: 1/2" x 11/128"
- rivet length: 5.65 mm
- weight: approx. 244 g (110 links; manufacturer's specification)
Super Light (SL) | In order to save every last gram, the SL models use hollow rivets in addition to slotted inner and outer plates. However, the maximum weight reduction is by no means at the expense of performance and running properties.
Double X-Bridge | The precisely chamfered outer plates have precisely defined angles. This design enables not only faster but also more precise shifting.
TiN Gold | Titanium nitride is a chemical compound of the elements titanium and nitrogen. The ceramic material is characterized by very high hardness and corrosion resistance. With its typical golden yellow color, the special titanium nitride coating from KMC not only looks great, it is also extremely durable. And thanks to the ultra-smooth surface, seamless gear changes are guaranteed.
GO WAX | A noticeable reduction in friction and a significant improvement in shifting performance. The innovative dry wax formula from GO WAX makes this possible. The advanced KMC chain wax not only ensures optimum efficiency, but also extends the service life of the drivetrain by forming a water-repellent microfilm on the chain. This prevents permanently both heavy dirt adhesion and accelerated chain wear.
