The SLX M7000 rear derailleur is updated for 11-speed drivetrains. It features SHIMANO SHADOW RD PLUS technology, which greatly enhances chain stability and retention. With rider-tuned design, it offers sharp and silky shifts. The shifting operation is 20% lighter, and the SHADOW design has an optimized slant angle for a stable gear position. It also comes with an OPTISLICK new shift cable with a new hyper low-friction coating technology. The chain stability is improved, and it ensures efficient shifting and smoother driving. The pulley teeth are designed for high efficiency.

Using this rear derailleur is quite easy. First, make sure it's properly installed on your bike's 11 - speed drivetrain. When you shift gears, you'll notice smooth and quick transitions. To keep it in good condition, regularly clean the derailleur and the chain. Wipe off any dirt or grime with a clean cloth. Also, check the shift cable periodically for any signs of wear. If the shifting starts to feel rough, you may need to adjust the cable tension. Avoid using excessive force when shifting gears, as this can put unnecessary stress on the derailleur. When storing your bike, keep it in a dry place to prevent rust and damage.
