This Shimano XT shifter - 11 speed offers positive and crisp Vivid indexing and provides a constant amount of shift lever force across all 11 sprockets creating perfect gear changing. Plus, with the 2-Way release function, the upper lever still performs the same shift function, but it can now swing in either direction. This gear lever also has a Multi Release feature that allows multiple gear changes with one sweep, further adding to the speed of shift. There’s also a multi-bearing design on this Shimano XT 11 speed bar mount shifter that uses two ball bearing units to provide a low-friction and reliable shifting action.
As arguably the most tactile part of Shimano s new Deore XT M8000 groupset, the shifters play a vital aesthetic and ergonomic part. The dimpled long sweep paddle, grooved release paddle and optislick cable provide a 20% decrease in shift effort, crucial for the long distance endurance racer, and create an enhanced interface between rider and controls.The XT shifter paddles are now slightly longer and more textured, with dimples on the thumb lever used for upshifts and vertical ridges on the smaller downshift trigger intended to provide a more positive surface to reach for in wet conditions. Like the previous version, they feature multi-release shifting, which allows riders to downshift two gears with one push of the lever whilst an improved vivid indexing mechanism guarantees shift accuracy. The ball bearing construction and slick-polymer coated shift cable enable a smooth activation.

Shimano Deore XT M8000 I-Spec B ShifterThis mountain bike (MTB) shifter is well-equipped for the demands of modern trail-riding, exploring new routes and all-day epics in the mountains. It features a comfortable ergonomic design with a long lever body and an anti-slip texture on the main paddle, so riders can benefit from strong and dependable shifting performance on every ride. Coming complete with many of Shimano's renowned technologies such as Rapidfire Plus and 2-Way Release, this is an excellent choice for reliable shifting in all weather and terrain conditions. One final highlight is this version uses Shimano's I-Spec B integrated mounting system for a cleaner and lighter bar setup.Features: Use: Mountain Bike (MTB) Speed: 11 speed Mount Type: I-Spec B Shifter Orientation: Right hand Single or Pair: Single Shifter Type: RapidFire Plus Max Multiple Shifts: 4 Multi-Bearing Construction: 2 Optical Gear Display: No Release Function: 2-Way Release, Instant Release Shifting Lever Cable Adjust: Yes Shifting Lever Position Adjust: Yes Weight: 117g (approx)Technologies: Multi Release: Previous shifting systems shifted faster in one direction than the other. Choosing top normal or low normal always meant sacrificing shifting speed in one direction. Now with Multi Release you can release shift two gears in one stroke. The result - the fastest possible shifting in both directions regardless of rear derailleur choice. Optislick: Optislick cables feature a minimal and uniform electrically coated layer that improves cable routing efficiency and provides excellent corrosion resistance. I-Spec B: Integration mounting system of the shifter and brake lever. It can realise clean appearance, more space for handlebar area and lightweight. SP41: With OT-SP41 the entire length of the outer casing is pre-lubricated with a special silicone grease for quick and precise shifting performance. OT-SP41 maximally reduces the inner cable friction to provide quick response to operations and easy/effortless shifting. Moreover, power loss due to delay in shifting and fatigue by shifting especially when you ride on the terrain with many ups and downs as well as a long-distance is also reduced. Rapidfire Plus: Mountain bikers have used Rapidfire Plus since 1985. Rapidfire Plus is still a winning choice from a wide range of riders from XC racers to freeriders. Rapidfire Plus is suited to quick shifting, giving riders the ability to downshift three gears in one stroke. Rapidfire Plus shifters from Deore to XTR all feature 2-way Release, which means release shifts by pull of the index finger or push of the thumb. 2-Way Release: The Rapidfire Plus shifter release lever is commonly called a trigger because it is operated like a pistol, by pulling toward the grip. The release lever of Rapidfire Plus shifters from Shimano Alivio to XTR can be operated in this same manner but adds the ability to activate a release shift by pushing with the thumb. Instant Release: Instant Release shifting replaces the two-stage click and release shifting you are familiar with. Instant Release shifting releases cable as soon the lever is activated, resulting in the quickest possible gear changes. Whether it is an upshift with a top normal rear derailleur or a downshift with low normal rear derailleur a quicker shift is always a better shift.Manufacturer's Part Number: 85205404 Black 2050mm Right 11spA 2-year warranty is offered with all Shimano products from Chain Reaction Cycles (3 years on Dura-Ace and XTR products).Buy Shimano Components from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World's Largest Online Bike Store.
