Description
The KMC DLC TT 11-Speed Chain is built for riders who refuse to compromise on drivetrain performance. Finished with KMC's Diamond-Like Carbon coating, it delivers low friction, extended wear life, and precise shifting — qualities that matter whether you're chasing a Strava segment on the Aarey Milk Colony roads or grinding out 200km through the Nilgiris toward Ooty. Cobbled Climbs is the authorised retailer for Time in India.
Use Cases
Daily training. Durable chain construction for repeat training use.
Race day. Optimised chain for clean shifting and minimal drivetrain friction.
Replacement intervals. Replace at chain stretch to protect cassette and chainring wear.
Our Take
At Rs. 13,599, the KMC DLC TT is a serious investment in drivetrain efficiency. The DLC coating significantly reduces friction and resists the grime and humidity that Mumbai, Pune, and Chennai riders deal with year-round. For time trialists and performance road cyclists, a cleaner-running chain translates directly into smoother power transfer on every pedal stroke. This is the chain you fit and largely forget — until you check your wear indicator and realise it's still going strong.
Sizing for Indian Riders
This chain is designed for 11-speed drivetrains — confirm your groupset speed before ordering. Compatible with Shimano 105, Ultegra, Dura-Ace, and SRAM Rival/Force/Red 11-speed systems. Chain length must be sized to your specific bike geometry; count links carefully during installation or have a trusted mechanic size it correctly. Mixed-brand drivetrain setups generally work well with KMC chains.
Compatibility Notes
Designed exclusively for 11-speed drivetrains — not compatible with 10-speed or 12-speed groupsets. Works with Shimano and SRAM 11-speed systems. Replace when a chain wear tool reads 0.5% wear to protect your cassette and chainrings. Use a quality master link tool for installation and removal. Clean regularly, especially during the Indian monsoon season, when grit and moisture accelerate wear noticeably.
Pairs Well With
Complete your drivetrain setup with a wet-condition chain lubricant for monsoon riding, a precision chain wear indicator tool, a chain cleaning device for post-ride maintenance, and an 11-speed compatible cassette. Keeping these items together ensures your drivetrain stays dialled year-round across Indian conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the KMC DLC TT 11-Speed Chain best used for?
The KMC DLC TT 11-Speed Chain is best suited for performance road cycling, time trialling, and competitive endurance events. Its Diamond-Like Carbon coating reduces friction for efficient power transfer, making it a strong choice for riders in Pune, Delhi, or Hyderabad who train regularly and want a chain that stays cleaner and runs longer between replacements.
What size or speed chain should I order for my bike?
This is an 11-speed chain. Count the sprockets on your rear cassette — if there are 11, this chain fits. It is not compatible with 10-speed or 12-speed drivetrains. It works with Shimano 105, Ultegra, and Dura-Ace 11-speed, as well as SRAM Rival, Force, and Red 11-speed groupsets. When in doubt, match the chain speed to your cassette speed.
Will the KMC DLC TT Chain hold up in Indian monsoon conditions and 35°C+ heat?
The DLC coating gives this chain an advantage in India's demanding climate. It resists moisture ingress and grime better than uncoated chains. That said, regular cleaning and re-lubing during monsoon season — particularly in Mumbai, Chennai, and Kolkata — is still essential. Use a wet-condition lubricant during rains and switch to a dry or wax lube post-monsoon for best results.
How does the KMC DLC TT compare to a standard KMC or budget chain?
Standard chains lack the DLC surface treatment, which means higher friction and faster wear under load. The DLC coating on the TT variant measurably reduces drivetrain resistance and extends chain life, especially in dusty or humid Indian conditions. Budget chains may seem cost-effective initially but typically require more frequent replacement, costing more in cassette and chainring wear over time.
Is the KMC DLC TT Chain worth Rs. 13,599 in India, and what warranty applies?
For serious road cyclists and time triallists, the DLC TT represents good long-term value. A chain that lasts longer and runs cleaner reduces cumulative drivetrain replacement costs. Warranty terms should be confirmed with Cobbled Climbs at time of purchase. Cobbled Climbs ships from Mumbai with free delivery above Rs. 2,500 and cash on delivery available across India.
