Key Features of the Shimano XTR Shadow ES Rear Derailleurs:
Precise Wired Shifting: Integrates seamlessly with your Shimano Steps Ebike system via EW-SD300 wires for accurate and consistent shifting performance.
Auto Shift & Free Shift Functionality: When connected to your Steps Ebike system, these derailleurs enable Auto Shift and Free Shift functions, enhancing your riding experience.
Crash Recovery: Absorbs impacts and automatically returns to its original position, minimising damage and keeping you moving.
Shadow ES Design: This design features a super low-profile skid plate and optimised slant angle for maximum ground clearance, reducing the risk of impacts.
Chain Stabilising Switch: A dual spring chain stabilising switch reduces chain bounce on rough terrain, maintaining stable drive and precise shifting.
Zero Maintenance: The Shadow ES system requires no maintenance and experiences no performance degradation over time.
Enhanced Chain Wrap: A unique structure using two springs provides a tighter chain wrap, improving shifting accuracy and security. Increased spring force by 70% ensures the chain meshes firmly with the sprocket.
Durable Construction: Built with cold-forged wide alloy links and a pivot body for exceptional strength and longevity.
Smooth Shifting: 13T solid pulleys and decreased derailleur tension prevent high chain tension in low gears, contributing to smooth and efficient shifting.
