Technologies

LINKGLIDE delivers smooth shifting and pedaling performance. This durable drivetrain is designed for a range of bike types and high-torque e-bikes, as well as persistent daily use. The robust cassette design enables smooth upshifting and downshifting while significantly reducing drivetrain wear. Its shifting gate design is optimized, and the robust cassette teeth resist damage when shifting and pedaling under high torque.

SHADOW RD is a rear derailleur mechanism intended for more aggressive riding. Its super-low-profile design and single-tension construction help prevent the derailleur from hitting the chainstay in rough riding conditions, resulting in smooth and quiet performance.
