Is the SRAM Eagle S200 Chain the right chain for your 12-speed Eagle build?

The SRAM Eagle S200 Chain is the step-up option in SRAM's redesigned Eagle Transmission chain lineup, built for the Eagle Drivetrain Ecosystem and compatible with every modern 12-speed Eagle drivetrain. The 126-link chain uses solid pin construction for durability and ships with a PowerLock quick connector for tool-free install. The differentiator over the S100 is the finish: silver Nickel outer links and Black Oxide inner links add a layer of corrosion resistance and give the chain a more refined look on the bike.

The S200 is also e-bike approved, rated to handle the higher torque loads of pedal-assist drivetrains without dropping shift quality. If you want a chain that lasts longer in wet and salty conditions and looks the part next to a clean drivetrain, this is the call over the entry-tier S100. Best for riders running 12-speed Eagle setups who ride in mixed conditions, e-bike riders, and anyone who wants their replacement chain to look intentional rather than utilitarian.
