Deore XT goes 12 speed!
In 2019, the best-selling groupset of the Japanese component manufacturer, Deore XT, follows the example of SHIMANO’s XTR group that was already equipped with 12 sprockets back in 2018.
As a high-end groupset for everyone, the XT is becoming increasingly popular.
With the Deore XT CS-M8100 12-speed cassette, SHIMANO offers a cassette with a balanced gear ratio - just like the XTR.
It impresses with sprocket sizes of 10 to 51 teeth, resulting in a 510% gear ratio.
This huge gear range is especially appreciated by enduro pilots, since it allows them to master steep climbs and fast sections at high speeds and adjusted pedal frequency.
Those who prefer particularly small gear steps for XC and Marathon can go for the lighter 10-45 version.
Here, the gaps between the gears are still small for smooth shifting.
This keeps rhythm and pedalling frequency at a constant level for maximum propulsion with less effort.
Optimised shifting speed without chain slap caused by larger gear steps is another advantage of the Hyperglide+ cassette at XT level.
To get more space for the twelfth sprocket, SHIMANO has developed the Micro Spline freehub body that replaces the previous HG freehub.

The first Shimano product was the bicycle freewheel, which also became the first product by Shimano to be exported in 1931.
Halfway through the 1950s Shimano expanded its range with a derailleur and a 3 speed hub.
In 1960 cold forging technology was introduced, quickly becoming a vital part of the production process and the main reason behind the premium quality of Shimano's bicycle parts.

Export figures grew exponentially. In 1965 and 1972 Shimano America and Shimano Europe were founded, and the first factories were opened in Singapore.
In 1973 the first complete Dura-Ace group came into being and Shimano Inc. became a publicly listed company.

Starting in the early 80s, the introduction of the mountain bike and the company’s leading role in its evolution led to rapid growth for Shimano Inc.
Then Shimano turned the road bike market upside down in 1984 with the introduction of indexed shifting (SIS), and again in 1990 with integrated braking and shifting (STI).
