Designed to deliver rock-solid shifting and long-lasting reliability, this derailleur combines intelligent features, rugged construction, and the legendary Shadow profile for smooth and responsive shifting in all conditions.Harnessing wired Di2 technology via EW-SD300 connections, the derailleur communicates directly with your STEPS drive unit, unlocking next-gen features like Auto Shift (automated gear selection based on cadence and torque) and Free Shift (shifting while coasting). Add in a crash recovery function, zero-maintenance design, and compatibility with wide-range 10–51T cassettes, and you have a derailleur that thrives in real-world trail conditions.The Shadow ES architecture features a low-profile layout with an integrated skid plate and an optimised slant angle to maximise ground clearance. A dual-spring chain stabiliser keeps your chain locked down on rough terrain, while a 70% increase in spring force ensures tighter chain wrap and more secure engagement, reducing the risk of skipping even as components wear.Key Features:Di2 Wired Shifting: Fast, precise, and consistent gear changes powered through EW-SD300 wires—ideal for modern E-MTB integration.STEPS System Compatible: Unlocks Auto Shift and Free Shift modes when used with Shimano STEPS E-Bike drivetrains.Crash Recovery Function: Automatically resets to the correct position after impact, minimising downtime on the trail.Shadow ES Low-Profile Design: Skid plate and refined slant angle protect the derailleur while improving clearance.Advanced Chain Stabilisation: Dual-spring mechanism with boosted spring tension ensures quieter operation and maximum chain security.Tighter Chain Wrap: Holds the chain tighter to the cassette for more efficient power transfer and smoother shifting, even under heavy torque or with worn cogs.Rugged Construction: Cold-forged alloy links, fluorine-coated bushings, and solid 13T pulleys combine strength with long-term reliability.SGS Long Cage Design: Compatible with wide-range 10–51T 12-speed HYPERGLIDE+ cassettes for ultimate climbing and descending versatility.Zero Maintenance System: No cables to stretch or adjust—just plug in and ride with confidence.If you're ready to push your E-MTB to its full potential, the Shimano XT Shadow ES 12-Speed Wired Rear Derailleur is the smart, durable, and connected upgrade that keeps you in perfect gear every time.
