Frequently Asked Questions
What fits Shimano DEORE XT LINKGLIDE REAR DERAILLEUR 1X11s?
On this page we list shifters that drive this derailleur, chains for this derailleur, cassettes for this derailleur. Each listing was matched on a specification we hold for both parts; anything we could not verify is omitted rather than assumed to fit.
Can I use a higher or lower speed chain with Shimano DEORE XT LINKGLIDE REAR DERAILLEUR 1X11s?
No. Shimano DEORE XT LINKGLIDE REAR DERAILLEUR 1X11s is an 11-speed component and needs an 11-speed chain. Chains for different speed counts have different external widths and inner-plate profiles, which causes poor shifting or interference with the neighbouring sprockets.
Does Shimano DEORE XT LINKGLIDE REAR DERAILLEUR 1X11s work with electronic shifting like Di2 or AXS?
No. Shimano DEORE XT LINKGLIDE REAR DERAILLEUR 1X11s is mechanical, cable-actuated. Electronic groups use internal motors and proprietary signalling, so there is no mechanical or electrical path between the two.
