Shimano STEPS CN-E6090-10 Chain - Reinforced for E-Bike use

The Shimano STEPS chain CN-E6090-10 is a special chain for e-bikes with 10-speed drivetrains. It has been specially reinforced for extra stress and is also available with 138 links. The SIL-TEC surface treatment of inner and outer plates ensures more efficiency and less wear. Note that the directional CN-E6090-10 chains only work with a single chainring.

Technology:

HG-X
HG-X chains from Shimano are 10-speed chains with directional binding. The outside has been optimised for shifting the chainring, the inside for shifting the cassette. This makes for smoother gear changes and higher drivetrain performance overall. Since correct assembly is crucial, Shimano has marked the sides of the chain.

SIL-TEC
SIL-TEC is a fluorine particle-based surface coating from Shimano. It results in smoother, lower friction operation and less contamination. This makes maintenance easier, reduces wear and extends the service life of SIL-TEC components.
