Product information "XT RD-M8100 12-speed Rear Derailleur"

The Shimano XT RD-M8100 12-speed rear derailleur features an elegant yet aggressive angled design and an attractive anodised aluminium surface. The derailleurs feature bigger 13-tooth pulleys and include Shimano’s proven Shadow RD+ low profile technology.

High-quality 12-speed rear derailleur for precise and fast gear changes: XT RD-M8100 from Shimano

The use of a single or a double system requires the installation of the specific single or double rear derailleur (1x: RD-M8100-GS/SGS, 2x: RDs-M8120-SGS), whereby one version with medium-length (10-45T) or long cage (10-51T) is available for single systems.

The use of a single or a double system requires the installation of the specific single or double rear derailleur. The original mountain bike group continues its legacy of remaining the standard for mountain bikers everywhere. Nearly three decades in, the DEORE XT brand is defined by its trail-tested durability, reliability and performance. Recognizing that today’s mountain bikers are riding faster and confidently on more technical terrain, the legacy of DEORE XT is more important than ever. In 2019, our pinnacle mountain bike technologies will  trickle down to SHIMANO DEORE XT M8100.

Das Schaltwerk 8100SGS ist unproblematisch in den ersten Monaten. Was mich wirklich stört ist die Anfälligkeit bei Regen, Schnee, Matsch und anderen Witterungseinflüssen. Das regelmäßige Reinigen und Warten des Schaltwerk ist für mich unverständlich. SRAM schaltet und dies ohne regelmäßige Reinigung oder Wartung. Das ist nervig für mich. Musste nun das 3. Schaltwerk innerhalb 2 Jahren tauschen, da die Kettenspannung nicht mehr gewährleistet ist. P.L. war auch keine Hilfe. Sorry Shimano, sonst macht es wirklich das was es soll und auch wie es sein soll, nur der Verschleiß ist doof.

Super Schaltwerk ! Voralem im Gelände auf harten Trails meine erste Wahl ....da es sehr verlässlich ist und es die Stöße und Gegebenheiten gut Einstecken kann wie Wurzeln , Steine usw .... Da machen die Trails so richtig Spaß .

Es macht was es soll und das sowas von problemlos und verlässlich, zwar nicht ganz so exakt und seidenweich wie die XTR, aber für den harten Einsatz im Gelände perfekt!

Online manuals (dealer manual) in shimano's database are very good, manual in the box lacks a lot of detail. Unclear what some of the included parts are for which gave me some initial hassle. Other then that it works just fine and is reasonably easy to clean. I do not like the plastic jockey wheels, but we'll see how that goes.
