Shimano Deore SL-T6000 3-/10-speed Shifters

The Shimano Deore SL-T6000 shifters - smooth and intuitive operation

The Deore SL-T6000 shifter set from Shimano includes a 3x shifter for the left, a 10-speed shifter for the right as well as friction-reducing Optislick cables, SP41 outer sleeves and end caps. Both shift levers convince with intuitive function without much effort and ensure reliable shifting on touring bikes with 3x10-speed drivetrains. In addition, they have been equipped with compact gear indicators that are very easy to read. Thanks to Rapidfire Plus technology, the SL-T6000 can downshift up to three steps at once and also have the 2-Way Release function. It can be operated both by pulling the index finger and by pressing the thumb. The Deore shifters are made of aluminium, plastic and steel and are mounted with a handlebar clamp. You have the choice between silver and black housings.

Technology:

Rapidfire Plus
Rapidfire Plus is a type of Shimano shift lever construction that has been common in the mountain bike sector since 1985. Two levers, the main lever and the release lever, are used instead of a twist shifter. Rapidfire Plus shift levers, as the name suggests, ensure fast shifting. In addition, depending on the model, it is possible to downshift up to three gears with one shift stroke.

2-Way-Release
With 2-Way-Release, the shifter can be pressed and pulled to shift to the smaller sprocket or chainring. This allows you to adjust the shifting process to your personal preferences. Most Rapidfire Plus shifters are equipped with 2-Way Release.
