Shimano CUES RD-U6000 Rear Derailleur - Shadow RD+ | 1x10/11-speed | Polished Silver Edition - medium (GS)

CUES Polished Silver Edition

Celebrating Shimano’s Heritage of Metalworking Excellence

The proven performance of the CUES components combined with classic aesthetics. Shimano equips selected components suitable for bikes with drop bars with a stunning finish in a polished silver color theme. This pays homage to Shimano's century-long tradition in metalworking and not only combines form and function, but also expands the portfolio for everyday use on the road or in Gravel sports. In addition to reliability, durability and smooth drive performance, the series impresses with ergonomics, comfort, versatility – and now also with an unmistakable look.

Shimano CUES RD-U6000 rear derailleur

The Shimano CUES RD-U6000 rear derailleur stands for stable and efficient performance – whether on the trail, gravel track or road. In doing so, the versatile rear derailleur for 1x10-speed (max. sprocket size 48 teeth) and 1x11-speed (max. sprocket size 50 teeth) drivetrain systems convinces with seamless shifting behavior.

The flat design and the Shadow RD+ chain stabilization system provide generous safety reserves in rougher terrain. When paired with a Shimano LinkGlide cassette (sold separately), the RD-U6000 rear derailleur provides smoother, quieter pedaling and barely noticeable shifting.

Exclusively compatible with the Shimano LinkGlide shifting system.

Shadow RD+ | Quiet drivetrain, less distraction. The Shadow RD+ system is lighter and more efficient than roller type chain devices. A rear derailleur stabilizer reduces chain slap and is a simple solution to prevent chain drop as well.
