Deore XT – Where Passion Meets Precision.

With its introduction in the 1980s, the Deore XT series revolutionized mountain biking. And its current iteration more than lives up to this legacy. The revised Di2 design stands out in particular, being now completely wireless and enabling correspondingly fast and reliable shifting. This is not the only point where it ties in with the recently launched XTR M9200 series. With its likewise robust drivetrain construction and sophisticated braking system, the Deore XT M8200 is a groupset that not only effortlessly withstands real-world riding situations, but also redefines what is possible on two wheels.

Intuitive Shifting At Your Fingertips. Thanks to its natural fit, the electronic Deore XT gear selector from the M8250 series feels familiar right out of the box. But also on the technical side, the wireless shift lever with Rapid ES technology benefits from Shimano's cross-generational experience in the development of mechanical shifting systems. The result is tactile feedback with every gear change and a rich clicking sensation that prevents shifting errors.

For maximum versatility and precision, users can choose from several shifting modes, including Hold-Down-Multi-Shift and Click-Through Double-Shift. In addition, a third button, programmable via the E-Tube Project app, allows additional system settings or connection to third-party providers. The package is rounded off by the short-stroke paddles themselves, which are not only adjustable in several axes, but also each feature a rubber pad with a comfortable grip for perfect ergonomics.
