An eighteen-speed hydraulic drop-bar groupset at the CUES entry price

The CUES U4030 2x9 drop-bar groupset pairs ST-U4030 hydraulic DUAL CONTROL LEVERS and BR-U6030 calipers with the FD-U6030 front derailleur and the RD-U3020 rear derailleur on an 11-36T LINKGLIDE cassette. Add the FC-U6030-2 double crank in 50-34T or 46-32T; both sit within the RD-U3020's 41T capacity.

Kit includes

  • ST-U4030-R right shift/brake lever, 9-speed, hydraulic (hose kit included)
  • ST-U4030-L left shift/brake lever, 2x, hydraulic (hose kit included)
  • BR-U6030 flat-mount hydraulic calipers, front and rear
  • FD-U6030 front derailleur, braze-on, for 46-50T outer rings
  • RD-U3020 rear derailleur, SGS cage
  • CS-LG400-9 LINKGLIDE cassette 11-36T
  • CN-LG500 LINKGLIDE chain

Options

  • FC-U6030-2 crankset, 50-34T or 46-32T, 170, 172.5 or 175 mm
  • BB-MT501 threaded 68 mm bottom bracket
  • RT-CL700 Center Lock rotors (choose size)

The crank, bottom bracket and rotors are optional extras that start at 0, so e-bikes and bikes keeping their own parts are not charged for them. Every other part can be deselected if you already have it. The front derailleur is braze-on: frames without a tab need a clamp adapter. Levers come with their hydraulic hoses and need a mineral-oil bleed after fitting.

Tune Cycles supplies and fits Shimano CUES across Sydney. Choose your options above; if you are unsure what your frame takes, ask us before you order.

Every part in this kit is covered by Shimano's standard manufacturer warranty against defects in materials and workmanship. Wear from normal use, incorrect installation or crash damage is not covered. For any warranty claim or support, return the part to Tune Cycles and we will handle it with Shimano.
