Shimano Deore XT RD-M8000

With the latest and completely revised version of the Deore XT group, the Japanese manufacturer takes your shifting performance to a new level. The new XT group meets the diverse demands of cross-country bikers, trail bike enthusiasts, and enduro racers convincingly, presenting itself as the most versatile high-performance shifting group from Japan. The Deore XT RD-M8000 derailleur features optimized Shadow+ technology with a flat angle and an extremely low profile, keeping sensitive components out of harm's way. Shifting performance has been enhanced through newly designed jockey wheels and optimized for cross-running chains. Additionally, you have the option to adjust the mechanism for minimal operating forces or maximum stability. The Deore XT derailleur allows for precise and lightning-fast gear changes exactly when you need them and keeps the chain secure—even on the roughest trails. Enduro fans can also forgo an additional chain guide, as the Shimano Clutch System maintains high tension on the chain. The new Deore XT derailleur is suitable for regular 2x use, as well as for bikers who prefer to ride with just one front chainring and 11 cogs at the rear.
