Ten LINKGLIDE gears for flat-bar trail, trekking and commuter bikes

The CUES U6000 1x10 groupset pairs the SL-U6000 Rapidfire Plus shifter with the wide-range RD-U6000 rear derailleur and an 11-48T LINKGLIDE cassette, so one chainring covers steep climbs and fast flats. LINKGLIDE sprockets and chain shift cleanly under load and outlast conventional cassettes, which makes this a strong choice for e-bikes too.

Kit includes

  • SL-U6000-10R right shifter, 10-speed Rapidfire Plus
  • RD-U6000-GS rear derailleur (for 48-50T cassettes)
  • CS-LG400-10 LINKGLIDE cassette 11-48T (or the CS-LG300-10 11-48T as a lower-cost option)
  • CN-LG500 LINKGLIDE chain

Options

  • FC-U6000-1 HOLLOWTECH II crankset, 170 or 175 mm and 30, 32, 40 or 42T (e-bikes and bikes keeping their crank leave it out)
  • BB-MT501 threaded 68/73 mm bottom bracket
  • BR-U8000 / BL-U8000 hydraulic disc brakes, front and rear
  • RT-MT800 Center Lock rotors (choose size)

The crank, bottom bracket, brakes 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. Pick one cassette. The RD-U6000 is made for 48-50T cassettes, so smaller LINKGLIDE cassettes are not offered here.
