SRAM GX Eagle Chain

The SRAM GX Eagle 12-speed chain looks just like the 11-speed chain, but slightly narrower in thickness to fit the cog spacing of a 12-speed cassette. Compared to Shimano chains, I'm glad that SRAM uses a Powerlink connector for easy, tool-free installation (after you cut the chain to the correct size for your bike). The GX Eagle 12-speed chain runs pretty quiet, even when shifting up and down through the gears. Actual chain weight was comparable to my 11-speed chain. So far I've had no issues with this chain as part of the GX Eagle group set I installed.NOTE: I purchased the GX Eagle 12-speed rear derailleur, XG-1275 GX Eagle 12-speed cassette, GX Eagle 12-speed trigger shifter, and GX-Eagle 12-speed chain. The next portion of text will be repeated in my reviews for the other items as well)Coming from an 11-speed setup, and I can't tell you how big of an improvement/upgrade it was! For the price of entry (about $375 for the groupset, minus the cranks) the entire GX Eagle system works so well, it feels just like the X01 Eagle system but without the gold bling and more importantly - at a very affordable price point. Shifting is crisp and satisfying. Drive train noise is actually surprisingly quiet. Thanks to the wide range of gears (and the 50t cog!) I can tackle more climbs for longer time periods with less effort. I'm completely happy that I made this upgrade to GX Eagle, looks like SRAM has made 12-speed both reliable and wallet friendly. I wish I had this group set a long time ago!

I received the product as expected: new and in good conditions.

Works great with the SRAM Eagle driveline. Chain holds up better than other chains that I’ve used in the past.I check it once a month and replace once it gets past 0.05. The chain lasts a long time and if I keep the chain replaced within that spec it allows for many years of cassette use.

Works great and seems to be holding up. Exactly what I needed to replace my worn out chain.

This chain is the best bang for your buck. It’s higher quality than the NX chain, and while it’s a bit heavier, it functions just as well as the XO chain. Grams is what you really are paying for. 5 star!

This products title says it has hollow pins. And one of the pictures show hollow pins.The GX chain does not have hollow pins.It is a good chain, but they need to change the title and the one pic.The XO1 chain does have hollow pins.

Tough to say if this chain is 2 to 3 times better than just a regular quality chain( because it costs that much more!) , but it has lasted close to twice as long as the “ average “ one and never showed any signs of rust either. Weight wasn’t a huge concern of mine but it’s probably a few grams lighter too. For those looking for one of the best , this could be it

While it appears Amazon may have 'stumbled' on the delivery-end of this transaction, the chain as shown was the one I thought it was and is the correct model to use on our older SRAM GX Eagle 52T groupset.However, and I'm not sure why the listing has never been updated since many buyers have noted that while it's title includes "Hollow Pin" the chain is the value-priced GX model that uses solid pins and is a tad heavier than the high-end Hollow Pin model. Again, the photo in the ad is correct and shows the non-Hollow Pin model, but some buyers might not realize the product title entry is incorrect.
