Mi bike came with GX as standard equipment and though it's a good product; alloy and Ti nitride treatment on XX1 just makes it the best chain against wear and corrosion. It stands at the top on independent tests and in the end makes more sense as it will reduce cost of use along with top quality lube (Silca, Ceramicspeed or immersion wax, just remember to clean and remove oem grease). I rotate 2 chains every 500 miles and both look like new and don't show significant signs of wear after +3k miles.

I have been using XX1 Eagle chains since the group was released. There is nothing else on the market that lasts as long as these chains do when kept clean and lubed (and likely when you don't). They look so nice with the color treatments as well. They aren't the highest efficiency chains out there if that matters to you, but for dollars per mile of life XX1 (yes they are different from XO1) chains are the best value and do the best job at keeping your other drivetrain components from wearing out.

It's a great chain. Strong, and these things last a long time. Descent looking too as far as chains go.

This is my third XX1 chain. I�m so impressed with the quality and durability. It also looks good. Availability and price were phenomenal here at Bike Tires Direct

Great chain, lasts 2k miles or more if you just leave it on the bike. Usually by then the cassette needs to be replaced. Chain shifts great and holds up good.

I have XX1 drivetrain and will always use the XX1 chain. It works great and lasts a long time if you take care of it.

The XX1 chain always works great and looks really good on the bike. I clean off the anti-rust coating with mineral spirits, wash, and lube the chain before i put it on. They hold up really well.

I am partial to the oil slick colors. This is an excellent product, quality is part of SRAM products and this is no exception.

SRAM chains are the longest wearing 12 SP out there IMO.
Having a silver and the rainbow color chains makes it easy to know which chain is next in line for a hot wax emersion.
Review by John
Exactly what you would expect from SRAM for a high end chain. Good quality. Light weight. Long lasting. Overall durability and dependability are excellent!

I wish the 12 speed chains lasted longer.

Great chain that actually does make shifting a little smoother. In my experience the Eagle group of products work well together. This group has made mountain biking a lot of fun again.

It works great, looks good, and it is silent. Easy to install, the master link is easy to work. I love that it is quiet. I sneak up behind other riders on our local single track trails.

This chain has been my go-to chain for use on the multiple E-MTB's I have owned. This chain provides many miles of smooth reliable performance and precise shifting. I just purchased a new Specialized Turbo Levo E-MTB and replaced the the new GX chain with this one and immediately noticed the difference. This PCXX1 chain is much quieter and the drive train shifts smoother. Plus, I know from thousands of miles of experience with these chains that they're extremely durable and reliable in all weather and terrain conditions. Highly recommend this high quality chain!
