My new 11 speed di2 is arriving this week. I have yet to decide on how best to join the chain. I have a few of the connex wipperman shimano 10 speed links and whilst searching the net have read of people successfully using 10 speed links on 11 speed chains. Has anyone used the connex 10 speed with the shimano 11 speed chain and if so, any issues? Thanks.

i have used KMC 11 missing link on both Campy and Shimano with no issues. i wouldn't suggest using a 10 spd link on a 11 spd chain...only in emergencies (spare in seat bag).

I use an 11 speed KMC Missing link on my Campagnolo Record 11 chain with no issues so far.
It's all downhill from here, except for the uphills.
