Shimano SLX CS-M7100-12 12-Speed Cassette

Shimano SLX CS-M7100-12 cassette - shifting performance for more fun on the trail

The Shimano SLX CS-M7100 12-speed cassette is characterised by its Hyperglide+ technology, which ensures high precision and smoothness as well as shifting speed when shifting up or down. In addition, Hyperglide+ minimises noise. CS-M7100 cassettes feature an aluminium spider and sprocket (the largest sprocket), which saves weight and contributes to durability. If the lowest possible gear jumps are important to you, then go for the 10-45 version. If you want to cover as wide a range as possible, the 10-51 gradation is the right one for you.

Technology:

Hyperglide+ / HG+
Hyperglide+ is the efficient further development of the Hyperglide system by Shimano. These are shifting aids and specially shaped sprocket teeth that make shifting to larger or smaller sprockets suppler, smoother and quieter. The system of small rivets attached to the side of the sprocket and milled or pressed-in ramps ensures that the chain is already carried along by the next sprocket during the shifting process before it leaves the previous sprocket. Hyperglide+ is optimised for faster shifting and shifting under load and has a more efficient chain connection, holding power and power transfer when combined with a compatible HG chain. Compared to Hyperglide, the shifting time is reduced by one third and the pedal stroke is noticeably reduced. HG+ enables a completely new chain stability and thus offers a safe riding experience.

Micro Spline
Micro Spline is an innovative tooth profile on MTB freehub bodies from Shimano. All Shimano 12-speed MTB cassettes with a 10-tooth sprocket are equipped with Micro Spline freehub toothing. The significantly higher and finer toothing enables a stiffer connection between the cassette and the hub body. The resulting increased contact area ensures reliable power transmission, minimises wear and prevents deformation of the freehub and sprocket.
