Shimano Ultegra CS-R8100 cassette 12 speed

Suitable for the latest generation of Shimano drives

The seamless gearshifts of the Ultegra R8100 12-speed cassette allow the driver to concentrate fully on climbs, sprints or enjoyable cruising without having to worry about the next gearshift. Pinions with more teeth ensure higher drive efficiency and ensure compatibility with Shimano 11- and 12-speed FREEHUB freehub bodies.

HYPERGLIDE + cassettes set new standards for shifting in off-road use thanks to seamless shifting processes when upshifting and downshifting across the entire gear range. It is time for this technology to be used on racing bikes as well. It is now possible to switch even with the greatest effort on climbs or in a direct duel with an opponent. In all gears, the Ultegra R8150 drive train ensures maximum efficiency thanks to larger teeth and ensures compatibility with existing HYPERGLIDE FREEHUB freehub bodies. Despite their expansion to 12 gears, Ultegra CS-R8100 cassettes set new standards in racing bike gear systems.

Highlights

• Revised 12-fold gradation for first-class efficiency and optimal acceleration in all racing situations
• Faster, smoother shifting under maximum pedaling force
• Compatible with the new 12-speed and 11-speed racing bike FREEHUB freehub body
