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.
As is typical for SHIMANO, the crank arms of the XT FC-M8120 Hollowtech II double speed crankset are made from hollow forged aluminium; and just like the XTR crankset, it comes without a spider to offer high stiffness values and low weight.
To secure the chainrings to the 12-speed XT crankset, SHIMANO uses their own Direct Mount standard with BB lockring.
The small chainring is simple fitted to the spider arms of the larger ring.
Thanks to the chainrings with 26 and 36 teeth, you get the perfect drivetrain system for long distances and steep climbs in combination with a Shimano XT CS-M8100 12-speed 10-45 cassette.
The optimised 4-arm chainrings with DYNAMIC CHAIN ENGAGEMENT+ (DCE+) even securely keep the chain on the rings during small jumps and on rough terrain.

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).
