Shimano Deore XT CS-M8100 Cassette

Shimano XT CS-M8100 Cassette:

The Shimano XT 12-speed CS-M9100 cassette with 11–45 teeth is the cassette for racing, with closely spaced gears and perfect shifting. At the same time, it is also the most carefully spaced cassette and, thanks to Hyperglide+, shifts superbly even under load. The close spacing enables precisely calculated gear changes without large, noticeable jumps or gaps, which saves power and energy and helps maintain flow on the trail in all situations. The cassettes feature an aluminium spider construction; the two largest sprockets are also made of aluminium, whilst the remaining ten are made of steel, ensuring an excellent, balanced combination of robustness and durability on the one hand, and low weight on the other.

Shimano XT 8100 12-speed cassette compatibility:

The new Shimano 12-speed cassette from the XT 8100 series is only compatible with 12-speed MTB drivetrain components. The CN-M8100 chain is recommended. Shimano’s 12-speed MTB cassettes are only compatible with the new Micro Spline freehub bodies.

Shimano Hyperglide Plus

Better chain retention, greater holding power and smoother pedalling ensure greater performance and a secure riding experience in rapidly changing terrain conditions. The clearly defined upshifts and downshifts in both directions help the rider stay focused and support acceleration. The highly efficient drivetrain with smoother power transfer ensures greater comfort and less stress. The wide selection of derailleurs and cassettes, combined with single or double chainrings, supports a wide range of MTB riding styles, experience levels and preferences.
