Just as mountainbiking and its riders are constantly evolving, Shimano is permanently striving to provide athletes with innovative materials for an unprecedented riding experience. The SLX M7100 series has been developed for these mountainbikers who want to explore new adventures and adapts - typically Shimano - the technologies of the high-end XTR group. These innovations include 12-speed drivetrain, Micro Spline and Hyperglide+ which have already proven themselves on Deore XT series.Content of the Shimano SLX M7100 1x12-speed Upgrade Kit:

The Shimano SLX SL-M7100 shift lever is characterized by its simple and smooth-running operation so that the driver can concentrate solely on the trail ahead. Compared to its predecessor, the SL-M7000, the shifting operation force could be reduced by 35 % while the main lever access is now 20 % faster thanks to a clever design. In addition, the lever's rubberized contact surface ensures maximum ergonomics.
The
I-Spec EV construction already familiar from the XTR M9100 and Deore XT M8100 has also found its way into the SLX M7100 components. With this technology the shifting levers can be mounted directly to the brake lever, what makes it possible to dispense with a clamp and to significantly increase the adjustment range. I-Spec EV allows 14 mm for longitudinal and 60° for rotational adjustment so that each rider can make a setup to suit his or her individual anatomy or preferences.
Proven features such as Rapidfire Plus, 2-Way- and Instant-Release have of course been adopted by the SL-M7100 shifting levers from its predecessors.
Shimano SLX RD-M7100-SGS Shadow RD+ rear derailleur
The Shimano SLX RD-M7100-SGS rear derailleur provides fast and precise shifting operations over a wide gear range. Guide and tension pulleys with 13 teeth and a rubber damper reduce noise and increase ride comfort. They also improve the chain's grip under all conditions.
Shimano SLX CS-M7100 cassette
The Shimano SLX CS-M7100 cassette features the
Hyperglide+ technology which guarantees high shifting speed, precision and smoothness when shifting up and down and contributes to an extremely quiet drivetrain.
The 10-51 teeth cassette covers a wide gear range and has an aluminium spider construction. The largest sprocket is made of aluminium as well. This not only reduces the weight, but improves also robustness and longevity.
Shimano SLX CN-M7100 chain
The Shimano SLX CN-M7100 chain is a new development and 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. E-Bike compatible.
Including Shimano SM-CN910-12 Quick Link connector.
