Product information "XT SL-M8100 I-Spec EV 12-speed shift lever right TOP-DEAL"

The XT SL-M8100-I 12-speed Rapidfire Plus shift lever from Shimano with the new I-Spec EV construction is characterised by its lightweight, ergonomic and compact design. In addition to the shifting behaviour, the performance is also up a gear. With 20 % shorter lever reach for fast shifting and 35 % less effort (without original packaging).

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

The theory behind the development of the new shift levers was to enable the rider to react immediately to sudden changes in the course or race situation. To this end, the intuitive operation of the handlebar elements has been significantly optimised once again, which can mean a decisive tenth of a second advantage in racing. The new I-SPEC-EV design, which allows SHIMANO shift levers to be mounted directly on the brake lever, thereby eliminating the need for a clamp and significantly increasing the adjustment range, makes a decisive contribution to this. 14 mm is available with I-SPEC-EV for adjustment in the longitudinal direction, 60° for adjustment in the rotational direction, so that every rider can set up the lever to suit their individual anatomy or preferences. This special focus that the developers have placed on shifting ultimately benefits the rider by allowing them to take their focus away from the controls and fully concentrate on racing. The RAPIDFIRE Plus MONO lever with its rubber contact surfaces guarantees unprecedented shifting comfort at the front. With one push of the lever, the front derailleur shifts to the large chainring, another push releases the lock and the front derailleur shifts back. Easier, lighter and faster than ever before.

The mountain bike groupset from the very beginning continues its legacy of setting the standard for MTB enthusiasts around the world. For almost three decades now, the DEORE XT has been characterised by proven durability, reliability and performance. The latest version of the groupset was confronted with the challenge that the modern mountain biker is travelling in ever more technically demanding terrain - and is also chasing faster over the trails. SHIMANO has done everything it can to meet this challenge and is once again launching cutting-edge technology for mountain bikes in 2019 with the DEORE XT M8100.


Features - XT SL-M8100 I-Spec EV 12-speed shifter right Rapidfire Plus

  • Lever is 20% faster to reach
  • Compact, lightweight design
  • Quickly accessible lever and less effort required to operate for constant concentration while riding
  • Greater flexibility and action-optimised cockpit layout
  • MULTI-Release allows two gear jumps. This allows you to shift through several gears in both directions using the main lever or the secondary lever

Technologies

Instant Release
The Instant Release shifting process replaces the two-stage click and release process. With Instant Release, the cable is released immediately when the lever is pressed, thus achieving the fastest possible gear change. Regardless of whether an upward gear change is to be made with a top-normal rear derailleur or a downward gear change with a low-normal rear derailleur - a faster gear change is always a better gear change.

2-Way Release
The release lever of a RAPIDFIRE Plus shifter is pulled towards the grip like the trigger of a pistol. The release lever of the new RAPIDFIRE Plus shift levers from ALIVIO to XTR can be operated in the same way. However, it can also be used to shift gears by pressing the thumb.

Rapidfire Plus
RAPIDFIRE Plus has been used by mountain bikers since 1985. RAPIDFIRE Plus continues to be used successfully by a wide variety of rider groups, from cross-country competition riders to freeriders. RAPIDFIRE Plus is suitable for fast shifting. The rider can downshift by up to three gears with a single shift. All RAPIDFIRE Plus shift levers, from DEORE to XTR, are equipped with 2-WAY-RELEASE (release in two directions). This means that the shift cable is released by pulling with the index finger or pressing with the thumb.

Rapidfire Plus Mono
The RAPIDFIRE PLUS MONO lever is a user-friendly and simple front shifting element with a lightweight and compact design. It enables convenient upshifting and downshifting.

Advantages and features
  • The simple and practical single-lever operation, faster access and easier front shifting promote concentration.
  • The double front shift with natural finger position facilitates gear changes.
  • Riders can shift comfortably in front to react quickly and precisely to changing riding conditions
The RAPIDFIRE PLUS MONO enables upshifting and downshifting via simple and intuitive single-lever operation. It supports double front shifting with natural finger position and intuitive shifting movements without releasing the fixed grip on the handlebars. The 2WAY-RELEASE functionality enables immediate pulling and pushing movements. This makes it easier to react quickly and precisely to rapidly changing conditions.

I-Spec-EV
I-SPEC EV creates a clean, action-optimised cockpit layout that helps more riders to increase concentration and flexibility.

Advantages and features
  • Thanks to the wider adjustment range, a wide variety of riders can find their optimum position - regardless of riding style, preferences and body type.
  • The ergonomic design, faster lever access and smooth operation increase riding comfort and promote concentration.
Thanks to the larger adjustment range, the I-SPEC EV levers can be set to the optimum position for a wide variety of riding styles (ENDURO, XC, etc.), rider preferences and rider anatomy (hand and arm position). With I-SPEC EV, the brake clamps are positioned further inwards. This creates an additional contact point between the handlebars and the brake lever, which increases the stiffness of the lever. This additional support significantly improves control of the bike and the braking effect. There is still space between the clamp and the support point for other accessories mounted on the handlebars.
