e-series for derailleur gears
KMC was the first chain manufacturer to develop special chains for mid-engine e-bikes. Their analysis of the power transmission in e-bikes with a mid-engine showed that the frequent gear changes under load require significantly higher safety reserves that cannot be achieved with classic chains. The critical part is the connector pin, which is subjected to the most extreme forces during shifting. KMC`s revolutionary riveting technology sets standards - the chains of the KMC e-series are extremely resilient and offer an unsurpassed service life for chain and hub gears.

Technologies used
In this chapter we explain the technologies that the manufacturer uses for this product.
E-bike
KMC`s e-bike chains were specially developed for the requirements of powerful mid-engines. An optimized bolt design ensures unsurpassed durability as the most important feature of these chains.
Durability Warranty
With this seal of approval, KMC guarantees that a KMC chain will last longer than comparable chains from other brands. This benefit extends to the series DLC, XSL, XEL, XL, X101 and e-bike chains.
Black Tech
Is black and stays black. KMC BlackTech is not a simple coating, but a surface treatment in which the color becomes part of the material. The process is in two stages - first, each individual chain component is treated and then the process is repeated with the assembled elements. As a result, the chain retains its deep black and is also very rust-resistant.
EPT
The latest milestone from KMC in rust protection. The non-toxic EcoProTeQ treatment doubles the rust resistance compared to KMC's RB anti-rust treatment. The advantages of the very smooth coating are maximum rust resistance, low noise and a great look.
Ti-N
Titanium nitride is a chemical compound of the elements titanium and nitrogen. The ceramic material, which is typically golden-yellow in color, is characterized by its very high hardness and corrosion resistance. The special titanium nitride coating from KMC not only looks fantastic, it also has an ultra-smooth surface and is extremely durable.
