Built for CUES LINKGLIDE

CUES is Shimano's unified component platform, and LINKGLIDE is engineered for durable, hard-wearing shifting. This shifter controls the rear derailleur across 11-speed LINKGLIDE setups, delivering smooth, repeatable changes designed to last.

Intuitive trigger control

Rapidfire Plus places two thumb-accessible buttons close to the grip. The 2WAY-RELEASE function means you can release a shift with either a thumb push or an index-finger pull, while multi-release allows up to three downshifts in one motion when you need gears in a hurry.
