Shimano Deore M6100, M5100 & M4100
After the mountain bike flagship XTR has already set benchmarks and Deore XT and SLX have followed suit, the Deore M6100 now rounds off Shimano's 12-speed lineup. It is complemented by the components of the M5100 and M4100 series which will equip 11- and 10-speed drivetrains at the same high level.
Regarding the price, the current Shimano Deore groups are positioned in the entry-level range, but are not prepared to compromise in terms of performance, quality and reliability. Almost everything that the high end groups XTR, XT and SLX have to offer in terms of technology, innovation, performance and range of functions, you will find in the Deore components, too.
Shimano Deore RD-M5130-GS Shadow RD rear derailleur
The Deore RD-M5130-GS rear derailleur owes its smooth and reliable shifting performance to the innovative LinkGlide technology, while the Shadow RD design allows for a secure and stable chain guide. Chain drop on rough trails is prevented by Shimano's chain stabilisation technology and impact damage from stones is prevented thanks to the flat profile of the quiet and smooth-running rear derailleur. The guide and tension pulleys with 13 teeth provide more stability.
The MTB-optimised rear derailleur is suitable for 1x10-speed drivetrain systems and matched to the E-Bike components of the Shimano STePS EP800 series.
LinkGlide
LinkGlide enables smoother, smoother pedalling and gear changes that are barely noticeable. The drivetrain is exceptionally durable, withstands daily wear and tear and provides long-lasting good shifting and pedalling performance, especially for multi-purpose bikes and high-torque E-Bikes.
The
optimised design of the LinkGlide shift aids
provides a smoother transition between sprockets to avoid jumps that can affect shifting and a rounded pedal. The
redesigned LinkGlide sprockets
themselves feature a much stronger base and a unique chamfer that dramatically improves wear resistance in high torque applications.
Shadow RD
Quiet drivetrain, less distraction. The Shadow RD system is lighter and more efficient than roller type chain devices. A rear derailleur stabilizer reduces chain slap and is a simple solution to prevent chain drop as well.
