It might look normal from the outside, but the engineering inside this incredible chain design that makes possible a gear range previously found only in 2-chainring drivetrains. And it's also the biggest contributor to the Eagle drivetrain's ultra-smooth, precise, durable and quiet performance. The Eagle chain's links have a smooth radius, with no sharp edges or chamfers, which yield a significant reduction in noise, friction and wear on chainrings and cassette cogs. This design also allows for a flatter plate, which means more consistent chain riveting and greater overall strength.
-absoluteBLACK GRAPHENwax is a hot melt wax that results in lower friction and last longer than other chain lubes! In addition, it’s much easier to use than other hot waxes and it doesn’t crumble during chain movement. This means you have more wax that protects your drivetrain for longer. GRAPHENwax can also withstand hot days where other wax lubricants will start to melt.
For $10 extra we can give that chain a Mspeedwax Race powder treatment too
-"Looks like gun powder but makes your chain faster than a speeding bullet. MSW Race Powder is the final application step for no holds barred performance on race day. Slashing friction 6% as tested by Friction Facts, this perfect blend of Molybdenum and Tungsten disulfide (no PTFE) is applied by brush and features outstanding longevity. Because it’s dry powder no dirt can hitch a ride on your clean, waxed chain. When absolutely every second counts, load the barrel with Race Powder for your most explosive performance."
