Change of posture Shimano Ultegra 11v GS RD-R8000
The rear derailleur Shimano RD-R8000 reduces the effort required to the lever, and at the same time ensures safety, speed and precision.
The rear gear Ultegra R8000 is available in two specific versions: short cage for 11-25 to 11-30 cassettes and medium cage for 11-28 to 11-34 cassettes
Thanks to the integrated Shadow RD technology, with its low-profile design tested on the upper R9100, the derailleur is more compact and closer to the frame, ensuring less damage in case of fall.
