The highlight for all those who like to be active. Consistently developed for comfortable as well as safe movement and created with the aim of offering more versatility for the most diverse types of bikes. The experience-oriented CUES series combines incredibly smooth and stress-free shifting behavior with durability suitable for E-Bike use and up to three times greater longevity thanks to LinkGlide technology. With the U6030 components, Shimano is expanding the CUES family to make it easier for riders to get started in road bike and gravel sport.
Developed specifically for 2x11-speed drivetrain systems, the RD-U6040 rear derailleur is significantly more compact than the conventional CUES models. With its sleek design, specifically tailored for road, all-road and gravel bikes, it saves a good 100 grams in weight. The necessary performance is ensured not least by the still sufficiently wide gear range.
