SHIMANO DEORE XT Rear Derailleur (Di2 spec.) RD-M8260-12 12-speed

Shimano Deore XT Di2 RD-M8260-12 Rear Derailleur

A 12-speed Deore XT Di2 derailleur for Shimano e-bikes, made for HYPERGLIDE+ 10-51T cassettes. It's wired into the bike and runs off the main e-bike battery, so there's no separate derailleur battery to charge.

On a compatible Shimano e-bike system it can run AUTO SHIFT, which picks the gear for you as you pedal, and FREE SHIFT, which lets you shift while coasting. Paired with HYPERGLIDE+, shifts stay smooth under load. SHADOW ES chain stabiliser, Automatic Impact Recovery, a wide link and skid plate are all on board.

E-bike drivetrain parts are normally fitted and set up by a workshop. Not sure it fits your bike? Talk to us and we'll check.
