The XT RD-T8000 rear derailleur by Shimano – Shadow technology for MTB, City & Touring riders

The Shimano XT RD-T8000 is a 10-speed rear derailleur for touring use, which has been equipped with Shadow technology, something that was not previously common in this area of application. This means that even more riders can now enjoy the flat design and the single preload, which provide more safety and prevent slapping even on rough ground. At the same time, the RD-T8000 is just as easy to operate and adjust as touring riders would want from a rear derailleur. The aluminium cages are extra-long (SGS) and handle cassettes up to 11-36 teeth.

With its sophisticated technology, the Shimano Shadow rear derailleur is especially suited to an aggressive riding style. The extremely minimised profile brings forth a number of advantages. Due to its flat design and single-preload construction, the rear derailleur does not hit the chainstay even under the harshest conditions. Shifting operates cleanly and quietly.
