What is Shimano Linkglide? Why do we use it on our e-bikes? | Extra smooth, long lasting drivetrain

Your mountain bike’s drivetrain has a tough old time. If being ridden in all conditions often while covered in dirt wasn’t enough, it has to shift at any moment, often under pressure. This is all why ‪@RideShimano‬ has come up with a new shifting system called Linkglide, designed to be tougher, longer lasting and smoother shifting, even under full power ebike shifts. In this video, we explain what it is and why we choose to spec it on some of our bikes, including key models in our latest performance e-MTB lineup.

After going through 2 or 3 chains a season on my hardtail mtb, last season my local bike store suggested putting an e-bike chain on my Deore 11spd. 14 months later and it's still measuring at 100%. I'm never buying a "normal" chain again for this bike.

was it a linkglide chain?

@@hammerhead28 Not sure, is there a way to tell? The shop put it on after service so I didn't see the package.
