Compatibility
Shimano DEORE REAR DERAILLEUR 10s T6000 is a Shimano rear derailleur. It is a 10-speed component. It uses Cable shifting.

Where we could not verify that interface, the part is left out rather than assumed to fit.

Frequently Asked Questions
What fits Shimano DEORE REAR DERAILLEUR 10s T6000?
On this page we list shifters that drive this derailleur, cassettes for this derailleur, chains 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 REAR DERAILLEUR 10s T6000?
No. Shimano DEORE REAR DERAILLEUR 10s T6000 is a 10-speed component and needs a 10-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 REAR DERAILLEUR 10s T6000 work with electronic shifting like Di2 or AXS?
No. Shimano DEORE REAR DERAILLEUR 10s T6000 is mechanical, cable-actuated. Electronic groups use internal motors and proprietary signalling, so there is no mechanical or electrical path between the two.
