Lightweight and super ergonomic shifter: XT SL-M8100 from Shimano
The theory behind the development of the new shifters was to enable the driver to react immediately to sudden changes due to the course or the racing situation. In addition, the intuitive operation of the handlebar elements has been significantly optimized, which can mean a decisive tenth of a second advantage in racing. The new I-SPEC-EV design makes a decisive contribution to this, with which SHIMANO shift levers are mounted directly on the brake lever, thereby eliminating the need for a clamp and allowing the adjustment range to be significantly increased. 14mm is available with I-SPEC-EV for longitudinal adjustment, 60° for rotational adjustment, allowing each rider to create a setup that suits their individual anatomy or preferences. This special focus that the developers have placed on shifting ultimately benefits the driver because he can shift his focus away from the controls and fully on the racing. The RAPIDFIRE Plus MONO lever with its rubber contact surfaces guarantees unprecedented shifting comfort at the front. With one press of the lever, the front derailleur switches to the large chainring, another press releases the lock and the front derailleur switches back. Simpler, easier and faster than ever before.
The original mountain bike group continues its legacy of setting the standard for the world's MTB enthusiasts. For almost three decades now, the DEORE XT has been characterized by proven durability, reliability and performance. The latest version of the groupset was confronted with the challenge of modern mountain bikers traveling in increasingly technically demanding terrain - and also racing faster over the trails. SHIMANO has done everything to meet this requirement and is once again launching cutting-edge technologies for mountain bikes in 2019 with the DEORE XT M8100.
