Need to replace a few chains and have usually just went with KMC.

Is there much difference between the X11-SL, X11-EL and X11-93 to justify the difference in cost and paying extra?

    Nope. Apart from the weight difference (which is tiny and am sure they have more weight in lube and crap on them!) they all seem to be as good as each other and wear at the same rate. Apart from buying one each of the SL and EL when they were on offer all my road and mountain bikes have 93s on them.
