## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can i use this chain on a campagnolo 10-speed drive train?  i currently use sram chains as i am not happy with the campy chains.**
A: yes.  The Shimano chains come with a chain pin rather than a masterlink.  So rather than the tiny pliers needed for that,  you need a chain tool to break the chain ( when removing ), to shorten a new chain, and to insert the pin.  Regular household pliers are used to break off the excess pin once it is installed

**Q: What is the length of this chain?**
A: I believe the chain is available in 112, 114, and 116 link lengths. Check the product specs to be sure what length. As long as you don't need something longer than 112 links it doesn't matter since you can remove unneeded links before installation,

**Q: Will this fit the Shimano M552 crankset? Thanks.**
A: Since the Shimano's Technical Documentation (http://techdocs.shimano.com/media/techdocs/content/cycle/SI/FC/SI_1LV0A/SI-1LV0A-002-ENG_v1_m56577569830755772.pdf) recommends using either the CN-HG94 or CN-HG74 with the M552 crank set, that's what I'd go with.

**Q: can i use ultegra 6600 10 speed cassettes with 6700 hubs and drivetrain?  i like some of the old ratios...**
A: BTW. Any 10spd chain will work really. Shimano and KMC shift on Shimano stuff the best though in my opinion.
