An elegant appearance and high-quality technologies characterize Shimano's new SLX. The brand-new mid-range group brings countless performance features that already distinguish its big sister, the Deore XT, and combines them with excellent value for money, extreme robustness, and comprehensive versatility. The result is mountain bike components that allow for the perfect setup for nearly every rider. The optimally matched cassettes also contribute to the top-notch performance of this system. Both the pleasantly lightweight 11-40 tooth version at 467 g and the wider 11-42 tooth cassette provide an even greater range of use.
