After the mountain bike flagship XTR has already set benchmarks and Deore XT and SLX have followed suit, the Deore M6100 now rounds off Shimano's 12-speed lineup. It is complemented by the components of the M5100 and M4100 series which will equip 11- and 10-speed drivetrains at the same high level.
Regarding the price, the current Shimano Deore groups are positioned in the entry-level range, but are not prepared to compromise in terms of performance, quality and reliability. Almost everything that the high end groups XTR, XT and SLX have to offer in terms of technology, innovation, performance and range of functions, you will find in the Deore components, too.
The Shimano Deore CN-M6100 chain provides fast, precise and smooth shifting in both directions even under highest loads thanks to its precisely formed contact surfaces to Dynamic Chain Engagement+ chainring and Hyperglide+ cassette teeth. In addition, the SIL-TEC coated inner plates increase the durability noticeably.
Dynamic Chain Engagement+ is a special gear teeth profile designed for use in 1-speed chainring configurations for XC, Enduro and Trail Riding. It gives more chain retention and smoother pedaling – even over bumpy terrain. Chain retention of any gear will reduce abrasion and worn out.
The conventional Hyperglide technology ensures smooth shifting upwards thanks to small shifting ramps, which guide the chain towards the next larger sprocket. Also Hyperglide+ uses this functionality but applies it in the opposite direction, too, preventing the chain from falling down when shifting downwards. The result is a smooth and consistent shifting in both directions, free of vibrations and without disrupting the cadence.
SIL-TEC is an advanced surface plating technology to increase both performance and durability. It adds a low friction surface treatment that runs smoother and lasts longer.
