A price-performance highlight from Shimano. The excellent CN-HG53 9-speed Super Narrow Hyperglide chain with very wear-resistant joints and chrome-plated rivets is ideal for beginners. Chain may only be closed with a 6.5 mm connecting pin.
 
Features:
• HG technology has chamfered inner plates to optimise shifting performance on HG sprockets
• Durability is assured through a chromising treatment on link pins, and the heat treatment of rollers, pins, and plates
• Mushrooming of the pins gives unsurpassed side-plate retention, enabling the chain to far exceed the BS/ISO standard for breaking force
• 6.57mm chain width, optimised for 9-speed Super Narrow HG drivetrains
• Corrosion-resistant grey finish on outer plates
