Replace SRAM Flattop Chain with KMC X12: Great with Shimano Too!

Recently, JOM of the Gravel Cyclist crew devoted a bunch of time, swapping wheels with cassettes by Shimano, Campagnolo, and SRAM, between bikes fitted with those systems to determine what works, and what doesn't. During this lengthy exercise, he learned of the existence of KMC's X12 chain, one that promises to run reliably on every 12 speed drivetrain circa 2024. In this video, JOM presents his findings with over 500km on this chain paired to SRAM eTap AXS Force... and some kilometres with the chain on a Shimano Ultegra 11-30 12-speed cassette. Reminder: ALWAYS BE A STEWARD FOR GRAVEL CYCLING: Respect the roads, respect the locals, respect the land, respect your fellow cyclists.
