All 8-speed chains (PC48, 58, 68, etc) are compatible with 7-speed
systems.

Thanks Peter. I guess what I'm really wondering about is the ramping
system on Shimano Hyperdrive - does that mean I need a HG Hyper Glide
compatible chain, and if so are the PC46/68 a HG chain? (I can't find
reference to HG in the specs for the chains.)
Thanks. Rob

I run a PC59 on a 2x6 setup. Modern sprockets all seem to be the same
width so there is no suck. I think it works better than a "proper" 6
speed chain possibly because the chain is lighter and doesn't whip
around so much.
