Product Details

Description

The Shimano Deore XT RD-M8230 SGS LinkGlide 11-Speed MTB Rear Derailleur is a long-cage, mechanical rear derailleur built for confident shifting when your ride gets rough. With Shadow ES chain stabilisation, a wedge-shaped profile to help the derailleur get out of the way of trail impacts, and covered pulleys that shield against debris, it is made for reliable performance where grit and impacts are constant. The long cage is compatible with LINKGLIDE 11-50T cassettes, giving you wide-range gearing for climbs and changing terrain. It is a great match for mountain bike riders who want smoother drivetrain control, and it is especially well suited to electric mountain bike setups that see higher, sustained load.
