Shimano redesigned both the inner and outer plates with asymmetric chamfers — different profiles on each side to account for the distinct mechanics of shifting inward toward the cassette versus outward toward the larger sprockets. The result is a chain that moves across the drivetrain with less hesitation and more consistency.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe enhanced press-in pin construction keeps the chain stable under load, reducing lateral flex where it matters most — during hard pedaling efforts when sloppy chain movement costs you power and smooth engagement.
