Shimano XT M8100 12-speed Shifters I-spec

SHIMANO XT SL-M8100 SHIFTER

THE NEW GENERATION OF XT

Many people don’t realize it, but your shifter plays a huge role in how smooth your shifting feels. Many argue a much larger role than your actual derailleur plays. Smooth and precise shifting starts at the shifter, so you want to make sure the one you have is solid. The new XT SL-M8100 shifter comes with the standard handlebar clamp which can still be used with Shimano brakes, along with any other brake system you might have on your bike. Features like Rapidfire Plus, allow you to smoothly shift through multiple gears at once to quickly find the perfect gear. If you are looking to upgrade your bike to Shimano’s new 12-speed drivetrain, a new 12-speed shifter is a key feature you will need. If you are looking for high performance at a reasonable price, the XT shifter is for you.
