KMC E101 EPT Chain: The Pinnacle of Durability for Single-Speed Drivetrains

Experience unparalleled performance and longevity with the KMC E101 EPT chain, engineered for the most demanding single-speed (1s) applications. Whether you are navigating the urban jungle on your commuter, pushing the limits in single-speed road cycling, or leveraging the power of an e-bike, the E101 EPT is built to exceed expectations and deliver a smooth, reliable ride mile after mile. This chain is not just a component; it´s an investment in a trouble-free and high-performance drivetrain.

The standout feature of the E101 EPT is its revolutionary EcoProTeQ anti-rust coating. This advanced surface treatment provides double the protection against rust compared to standard coatings, ensuring your chain performs flawlessly in all weather conditions. Rain, salt, and humidity are no match for the EPT´s superior defense, significantly reducing maintenance and extending the chain´s operational life. This means more time riding and less time in the workshop.

At its core, the E101 is a very durable 1/2x1/8 bushing chain. This robust construction is specifically designed to withstand the high torque forces generated by e-bike motors and powerful single-speed pedaling. The bushing design minimizes stretch and wear, maintaining precise engagement with your chainring and cog for a consistently quiet and efficient power transfer.

One of the most compelling benefits is its enormously longlasting running performance, capable of achieving over 10.000 km when you´re using a suitable KMC chainring. This incredible durability makes it one of the most cost-effective chains on the market, providing exceptional value through its extended service life. For high-mileage cyclists, this means fewer replacements and a more dependable ride day in and day out. Furthermore, upgrading your current setup is straightforward, as the chainring and chain are easily to retrofite, allowing for a seamless transition to a more robust and long-lasting drivetrain system.
