Thanks to new, more direct Shadow cable routing and the reduced cable tension, Dyna-Sys is less sensitive to contamination, cable stretch and cable routing concerns, which all adds up to more consistent performance in even the roughest terrain - the kind of trails that rattle molars loose and make suspension components work overtime to keep pace.

The new Shimano Deore XT Shadow rear derailleur continues to be improved and combined with the newest shifter design optimizes the overall system stability. It is developed for use with Dyna-Sys 10-speed system and proper for 2-/10-speed and 3-/10-speed drivetrains.

The low profile design is intended for more aggressive riding. The derailleur will not contact the chain stays, thus it’s super quiet. The super low profile design carries many benefits. It performs smoothly and silently under all conditions. The low profile design saves the rear derailleur from damage in narrow or tricky passages.

The RD-M780 Shadow rear derailleur is only compatible with 10-speed Dyna-Sys shifting components.
