The MTB chain: the link between crankset and cassette

The MTB chain is one of the most important parts to be monitored on your MTB as well as the condition of your brakes to be checked regularly. It's exposed to mud, dust, sand and shocks.
The MTB chain is made up of a multitude of links that are assembled to one another.
It makes it possible to connect between your chain rings (fixed to the crankset) and your cassette, and the chain makes the transmission work. It's thanks to the chain that the energy provided by pedaling will be transmitted to the rear wheel.

How to choose a mountain bike chain?

Your choice depends on your type of transmission. The chain must be well-adapted to your cassette.
Indeed there are as many models of MTB chains as of types of cassettes. There are chains more or less fine and more or less long (about 112 to 116 links) to adapt to cassettes of 6 speeds up to 11 speeds.
Maintenance of your chain is to be done regularly to avoid premature wear. It's necessary to lubricate it after each cleaning session with special MTB lubricant chain.
Finally, to disassemble/reassemble a chain easily and quickly, you need to be equipped with a chain derivative.

MTB Chain: The Link Between Chainring and Cassette

The MTB chain is one of the most critical components to monitor on your mountain bike, just like the condition of your brakes, which should be checked regularly. It is exposed to mud, dust, sand, and impacts.
The MTB chain consists of numerous links that are connected to each other.
It connects your chainrings (attached to the crankset) to your cassette, and it is the chain that powers the drivetrain. Therefore, it is responsible for transmitting power from the energy delivered by the rider on the crankset to the rear wheel.

11-Speed MTB Chain or 12-Speed MTB Chain?

The type of chain you should choose depends on your drivetrain. It is essential that the chain is compatible with your cassette.
Indeed, there are as many types of MTB chains as there are cassette types. Chains vary in width and length (approximately 112 to 116 links) to fit cassettes ranging from 6-speed to 12-speed.
Regular maintenance of your chain is necessary to prevent premature wear. It should be properly lubricated after each wash with a specific MTB chain lubricant.
Finally, to easily and quickly remove or reinstall a chain, you need a chain breaker tool.
