On my box there’s a label. Under the label there’s no QR code. 😢 Fake?

@colinjava8447 3 месяца назад

Mine has QR code but everything about it is fake, like the curly G and the EV is not connected, and the split link is in the with the chain not separate, I'm returning it.

Legit shimano are easily got rust in a few days bruh

@COOLBIKEyt 11 месяцев назад

What models do you use? Better Shimano chains have anti-corrosion coatings, and I don't have such problems. But I try to avoid wet conditions, and clean, and lubricate chain often. A lot also depends on whether you ride in winter and were your roads were salted.

@@COOLBIKEyt 10s shimano deore . I do lubricate more often specially when im not riding my bike. Even i finish wash up my bike i do put lube on it.

@COOLBIKEyt 11 месяцев назад

@@julloys4t602 Try XT CN-HG95, it has at least some coating unlike Deore, maybe it will work better for you.

@COOLBIKEyt 3 месяца назад

Hi, that the Quicklink is with the chain, not in separate foilpack, as it should be ;).

@geoleo2597 3 месяца назад

@@COOLBIKEyt thanks for that. Mine is not wrapped and it doesn’t have a QR code. Fake 😢

@@COOLBIKEyt also the chain is oily not with the thin sticky grease. I’m guessing another fake indicator?

@@geoleo2597 That's interesting...possibly another good example :)

@cliffmcleroy8168 6 месяцев назад

I got one that seems to be real but it hangs on the jockey wheels, like the inner links are too tight

@COOLBIKEyt 6 месяцев назад

Hi, that's interesting... what kind of derailleur do you have and are the jockey wheels original?

@cliffmcleroy8168 6 месяцев назад

@@COOLBIKEyt It's a new r7000 derailleur. That's why I was so confused at first. I've certainly been known to mix and match parts but not in this case.

@COOLBIKEyt 6 месяцев назад

@@cliffmcleroy8168 This chain should fitr perfectly to this derailleu. I don't know what could be wrong ;/

@cliffmcleroy8168 6 месяцев назад

@@COOLBIKEyt I've compared the inner width of the links with other 11sp Shimano chains I have and it's narrower. Granted the other chains have some wear but I don't think this dimension would change. They did a a good job hiding the fakeness on this one, but it's clear to me now it's fake. I have the LBS ordering one.

@COOLBIKEyt 6 месяцев назад

@@cliffmcleroy8168 Inner dimension have to be same in all 11s chains...so unfortunately there is something wrong with it. Remember to buy from reliable stores.
