Shimano XT M8120 2x12-Speed Bagskifter

The Shimano XT M8120 2x12-Speed rear derailleur is a quiet, robust, smooth shifting and lightweight derailleur for 2x12-speed Shimano mtb shifting systems.

The addition of a newly developed clutch keeps your chain under tension while cycling, so the derailleur does not chatter when you ride over bumps. In addition, this clutch also ensures that the chain tension in a low gear is reduced, so that your components last longer.

Finally, this derailleur is made of the lightest materials possible without drastically increasing the price. Weighing 290 grams, you can call this derailleur relatively light. Therefore, this derailleur has an excellent price-performance ratio and makes sure you keep your carry weight low when you head out to the forest!

A crooked derailleur hanger?
A common problem is a warped derailleur hanger. This can be caused by the derailleur coming into contact with something hard, for example during a fall. Fortunately, this can be repaired! Find out more here.

Make sure you clean your derailleur pulleys too!
Like the chain, derailleur pulleys get very dirty. This makes for a less enjoyable ride and doesn't help with the durability of your drivetrain. Therefore, when cleaning the chain and / or oiling the chain, it is advisable to also clean the derailleur pulleys. Do this by gently turning the chain while you run a cloth along the derailleur wheel. However, at some point the derailleur wheels will be worn out.
