KMC 11s quick-link is NOT compatible with 11 Campagnolo chain.
Do all KMC chains have missing link?
Yes, KMC constructs Missing Link I, II, 9, and 10 for 7.3mm, 7.1mm, 6.6mm, and 5.9mm respectively; all Missing Links are compatible with Sram, Shimano, and Campy equivalent chains. Our chains also feature our XXSP stretch proof treatment. This is a treatment that we have perfected in our years of chain manufacturing.
Do you need a Campagnolo chain tool?
Campagnolo tell you to use only their own chain tool, called the UT-CN300, warning that ‘use of another tool could result in failure of the chain, an accident, personal injuries or death.
Are Campagnolo 11 speed chains directional?
not directional. You’ll notice the r11 logo alternating right side up or up side down every link or two.
How long does a Campagnolo chain last?
My Campy chains lasted about 3000-35000 miles. My Wipperman stainless steel’s last about 5K. However, next time around I think I’m due for a new cassette (in about 2500 miles). It probably depends on how you maintain your chain, how you ride, and riding conditions.
Can I reuse a KMC Missing Link?
Yes, a regular chain tool can be used to shorten KMC Chains and no special tool is needed. All other Missing Links can be reused between 2-3 times per life cycle of the chain. If you purchase a replacement chain, the used Missing Link should not be reused and is not interchangeable.
Is the Campagnolo 11 speed chain interchangable with Shimano?
Read this article, all 11 speed cassette works with all Shimano, SRAM and Campagnolo drivetrain, meaning chain and RD and crankset, so the answer is the Shimano 11 speed chain and Campagnolo 11 speed chain are interchangable.
Does campy have a quick-link chain?
With Campy, the chain length, so long as it is set right, can be adjusted properly for the entire range of cassettes that are within the capacity of the derailleur, so changing chain length is really only necessary if you’re changing the front chain ring sizes. It would be nice if Campy had such a quick-link like Shimano.
Will KMC chains fit SRAM 11 Spee?
FWIW, KMC’s chains are all listed for Campy, Shimano and SRAM 11 spee. – Batman May 26 ’14 at 23:01 1 yeah, on the grounds that each of them seems to have a design philosophy to be incompatible with the other, I wouldn’t expect that to have changed now. – PeteH May 27 ’14 at 10:55 It’s not the cost of the chain – it’s the tool to fit it!
Is campy the same width as Shimano?
I don’t know the specifics (I’ve heard the plates are thinner on Campy than Shimano, and the pins are a bit different), but in this case, the width is the same between Shimano and Campy for once. But typically, Campy stuff doesn’t play nice with Shimano stuff.
