Hello. I appreciate the power link is directional but is the chain directional ?

Also, is there a way up or down ?

Should I be able to read the word SRAM at the top of the chain when looking at the drive side or not ?

Cheers

Nick

SRAM 11sp chains aren’t directional. ‘Up or down’ is really the same question and it’s simply aesthetics.

The only things you need to pay attention to are length and ensuring you get the chain correctly over the narrow-wide teeth on the chainring and in the derailleur.

I don't think it's directional - they normally have some instruction in the box though

No instructions sadly. The Powerlink has arrows on it so I assume it is directional. Thx everyone.
