Shimano Deore XT M8100 - The world is your canvas
The legendary MTB group is set to set the standard for mountain bikers around the world, even in the younger generation. For nearly three decades, the Deore XT has been synonymous with proven trailer performance, reliability and durability.

As mountain biking gets faster and the terrain more technically challenging, the job of the M8100 components is to give the rider the confidence he needs to get the most out of the bike.

Shimano Deore XT RD-M8130-SGS Shadow RD+ Rear Derailleur
The Shimano Deore XT RD-M8130-SGS rear derailleur achieves smooth and reliable shifting performance thanks to LinkGlide technology. However, like its sister models, it still allows quick and precise gear changes over a wide range of ratios.

A secure and stable chainline prevents chain jump on tough mountain trails. The guide and tension jockey wheels with 13 teeth and sealed bearings, as well as a rubber damper, which also dampen noise and thus increase driving comfort, also provide more stability.

The MTB-optimized rear derailleur with a flat profile is suitable for 1x11-speed drivetrain systems and is matched to Shimano STePS EP800 series e-bike components.

LinkGlide
LinkGlide allows for smoother pedaling and barely perceptible gear shifting. The drivetrain is exceptionally durable, withstanding daily wear and tear and providing long-lasting good shifting and pedaling performance, especially for multi-purpose bikes and high-torque e-bikes.

The optimized design of the LinkGlide shift aids provides a smoother transition between the sprockets to eliminate jumps that can affect shifting and a rounded pedal. The redesigned LinkGlide sprockets themselves feature a much stronger base and a unique chamfer that greatly improves wear resistance in high torque applications.
