Hmm...Since buying my LOOK which I thought was 10 speed, but is in fact 11s, I have used a 10 speed chain a year and after three years of 20,000 km a year I have changed my cassette and chain-rings too (they were not new three years ago).
But I see that there are lots of cheap 11s chains available from China, so I will try them.
