.. the Connex 11SX is a good choice (the best) .. and with the Connex quick link easy to handle .. even with the Connex you'll need 2 chains for a transcon at least .. otherwise the whole drive train will be toast at the end .. mounting the quick link check for the "bigger" outside flap rolling between the first two cogs and not skipping over the closure ring for the cassette (if, turn the quick link) .. have fun riding a continent !!
i don’t understand your recommendation - can you explain further? I noticed the quicklink rattles when passing over my smallest cog (11) and this werk during some hard intervals on the trainer the chain skipped a few times. I wonder if I have it on there incorrectly (there are no instructions for it). I don’t quite trust it.
