Shimano DEORE XT 12-speed Rear Derailleur (RD-M8200)

The RD-M8200 stands as the most robust mechanical rear derailleur in the DEORE XT lineup, engineered to deliver exceptionally reliable and stable shifting performance across any riding style. Featuring a modernized bracket and a brand-new low-profile wedge design, it is purpose-built to steer clear of trail obstacles and impacts. Even in the event of a direct hit from rocks or roots, the derailleur's internal spring absorbs the impact energy and swiftly snaps the cage back into position.

Offering an impressive 510% gear range, the RD-M8200 is perfectly suited for everything from intense enduro racing to all-day backcountry trail adventures, especially when paired with a wide 10-51T cassette.
