Frequently Asked Questions

What fits Shimano ULTEGRA HYPERGLIDE+ CASSETTE 12s (CS-R8101-12)?

On this page we list wheels with a compatible freehub, rear derailleurs for this cassette, chains for this cassette. 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 ULTEGRA HYPERGLIDE+ CASSETTE 12s (CS-R8101-12)?

No. Shimano ULTEGRA HYPERGLIDE+ CASSETTE 12s (CS-R8101-12) is a 12-speed component and needs a 12-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.

Which wheels does Shimano ULTEGRA HYPERGLIDE+ CASSETTE 12s (CS-R8101-12) fit?

Shimano ULTEGRA HYPERGLIDE+ CASSETTE 12s (CS-R8101-12) needs a rear wheel or rear hub with a HG freehub body. It cannot be fitted to a front wheel, and it will not fit a rear hub built for a different freehub standard without changing the freehub body.
