The DEORE RD-M7200 is the true introduction to Shimano's latest mountain bike rear derailleur technology — full performance, for everyone. It uses the same SHIMANO SHADOW ES design as its DEORE XT counterpart, with a steel cage in place of alloy for added toughness and a friendlier price.

That new wedge shape helps the derailleur move out of the way when it meets the trailside rocks and roots that used to destroy derailleurs, springing back into position without missing a beat. A wide-link structure and solid pulleys add real durability, while the updated chain stabiliser keeps the chain settled and quiet over rough terrain. Shifting is fast and precise even under heavy pedalling, making this a dependable heart for any 12-speed HYPERGLIDE+ build.
