Product information "XT SL-M8100 12-speed Shift Lever right"

The Shimano XT SL-M8100 12-speed Rapidfire Plus shift lever features a lightweight, ergonomic and compact design. In addition to the shifting behavior, the performance also increases. With 20 % quicker lever access time and 35 % less force.

Light and super ergonomic shift lever: XT SL-M8100 from Shimano

Enhancing lever access and shifting speed, the new RAPIDFIRE PLUS shift levers offer light operation force and more versatility. Shimano’s new I-Spec EV lever design features greater flexibility in mounting for a clean and ergonomic cockpit. And for double chainring systems, the lever simplifies front shifting with a lightweight and compact design that shifts up and down with a single lever.

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.

Technologies 

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. 
 
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 ALIVIO to XTR can be operated in this same manner but adds the ability to activate a release shift by pushing with the thumb. 
 
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.

Rapidfire Plus Mono

RAPIDFIRE PLUS MONO LEVER provides intuitive and simple front control that empowers riders to shift both up and down with a single lightweight and compact lever.

Benefits & Features
  • Simple and intuitive single lever operation, quicker access and lighter front shifting enhances concentration.
  • Front double shifting with natural finger positioning supports intuitive shifting operation.
  • Easy front shifting helps riders quickly and accurately respond to rapidly changing conditions.
RAPIDFIRE PLUS MONO LEVER’s simple and intuitive lever operation allows riders to shift both up and down with a single lever. It supports front double shifting with natural finger positioning and intuitive shifting operation while maintaining a solid grip on the handlebar. 2WAY-RELEASE functionality delivers instantaneous push & pull movements to help riders respond quickly and accurately to rapidly changing conditions.

I-Spec-EV
I-SPEC EV creates a clean and action-optimized cockpit that provides greater focus and flexibility for a wider range of riders.

Benefits & Features
  • Wider adjustment range allows riders of various styles, preferences and body styles to adjust to the optimal position.
  • Ergonomic design, quicker lever access, and light operation enhance rider comfort and concentration.
With its wider adjustment range, I-SPEC EV levers can be adjusted to the optimal position to match a wider range of riding styles (ENDURO/XC/etc.), rider preferences and rider anatomies (hand and arm alignment). I-SPEC EV increases brake lever rigidity by moving the brake clamp position inward to create an extra point of contact between the bar and the lever. This additional bracing drastically increases bike control and braking engagement while maintaining space between the clamp and support point for other handlebar accessories.

Das mehrfache runter- als auch hochschalten ist sehr schnell und praezise. Das typische hochschalten ist sehr sehr knackig mit einer meiner Meinung nach vorteilhaften grossen Flaeche am Hebel. Fuer Fahrer, welche gerne ein simples schalten bevorzugen und aber das mehrfache hochschalten benutzen moechten: da muss man schon mit dem Daumen ueber dem unteren Hebel zum runterschalten "tief" eindruecken. Ergonomisch koennte es fuer einige ein Problem sein also wenns geht davor ausprobieren.

Habe von SLX auf diesen XT Hebel umgebaut: SLX war zwar etwas leichtgängiger in der Bedienung, der XT Hebel schaltet dafür aber noch präziser als der SLX. Der kleine Trigger am XT ist sehr(!) hakelig und ich kann nur hoffen, dass es nach hundertfachen Schaltvorgängen etwas leichtgängiger wird.

Hatte vorher den SLX Schalter verbaut, wollte aber unbedingt und schon immer das Feature mit dem "2fach runter schalten" (double release) haben. Das ist hierbei aber nur bei der Auslösung mittels Daumen möglich. Dafür ist der Zeigefingertrigger sehr fest und hakelig und auch irgendwie deplaziert. Ich komme da nur mit dem Rand des Fingers ran, wenn ich den Finger schon sehr bewußt verbiege... Insgesamt ist das Schalten mit der 2fach runter und 4fach rauf schon echt genial und ich möchte es nicht mehr missen (5*). Nur sollte man sich bewußt sein, dass die SLX smoother mit dem Zeigefingertrigger funktioniert und bei der XT aus zuvor genannten Gründen eigentlich nicht anwendbar ist (eher so 2-3 Sterne)... Schaltet aber knackiger/präziser/verbindlicher als das SLX. Zur Haltbarkeit kann ich noch nichts sagen, da ja einige Bewertungen aus dem Netz nicht so positiv ausfallen (gebrochene Federn). Ich gebe großzügig (weil bereits am nächsten Tag geliefert wurde) noch knapp 4*. Kann natürlich nicht ausschließen, dass ich ein Montagsmodell erwischt habe...

Was soll man sagen? Typisch XT, knackig, präzise und einfach top! Und der Versand ging super schnell, wie immer.

Es funktioniert wie eine Laptop-Tastatur. Klickt ganz dezent, aber schaltet genau und blitzschnell.
