Shimano Deore RD-M7200 12-Speed Rear Derailleur

Shimano Deore M7200 Shadow ES 12-Speed mechanical rear derailleur for dependable shifting performance and durability.

The Deore M7200 12-Speed mechanical rear derailleur carries forward all the new technology of the XT M8200 but utilises a strong steel pulley cage in its long-cage construction. This adds nominal weight but also ups durability of an already-robust structure. The derailleur's wide link structure adds strength, and its wedge-shaped design helps dodge impacts on the trail. Pair with the HyperGlide+ 12-Speed 10-51T cassette and Deore M6200 shifter for a stout, reliable, fast-shifting drivetrain suitable for all trail rides.

Technology

Shimano Shadow ES

Robust. Resilient. Ready For Anything.

The concept of a Shadow derailleur has evolved. It's slimmer, stronger, smarter, has a Shadow-style chain stabilizer, and has a motor unit with Automatic Crash Recovery that returns to its original position after impact.

• Automatic Impact Recovery: The new Automatic Impact Recovery function instantly returns the 12-Speed derailleur to its original position after impact. Ride on
• Low Profile, Slim Design: Experience fewer derailleur strikes with lower consequences thanks to the low profile wireless derailleur
• Chain Stabilising Technology: The low-profile dual spring design creates higher chain tension for better chain wrap and retention
• Designed To Survive: The rear derailleur body boast a wide, well-braced linkage and solid pulleys to minimise debris entry and ensure durability
