Sorry if this has been answered before, I searched but couldn´t find anything. I¨m topping up the spares in my bag and realised I only have SRAM quick links. It´s been fine but I know that the 11 speed shimano is using a special tooth as an alternative to the narrow wide. Is that right? What are you guys using to join Shimano 11 speed chains when they break? I guess I´m going to start seeing a lot of it soon and thought I´d best get some spares ordered. Does a SRAM quick link work well with a Shimano 11 speed chain? Is there something else that´s better?

Thanks for any help!

Good to know therevokid! That cuts down the number of spares I need to carry. Jemima, that was my second choice. I always find the quick links really good. I carry some pins too just in case but much prefer the links.

I was using a SRAM powerlink on my Ultegra chain no problem, since swapped to a Sram chain now though.
