Twenty-two hydraulic drop-bar gears with a wide 11-45 cassette

The CUES U6030 2x11 drop-bar groupset pairs ST-U6030 hydraulic DUAL CONTROL LEVERS and BR-U6030 calipers with the 11-speed RD-U6020, an 11-45T LINKGLIDE cassette and the FD-U6030 braze-on front derailleur. The optional cranks are 46-32T only: the 14-tooth ring gap plus the 34-tooth cassette range use exactly the RD-U6020's 48T capacity.

Kit includes

  • ST-U6030 right shift/brake lever with BR-U6030 front caliper and 1000 mm hose
  • ST-U6030-L left shift/brake lever (2x) with BR-U6030 rear caliper and 1700 mm hose
  • FD-U6030 front derailleur, braze-on, for 46-50T outer rings
  • RD-U6020 11-speed rear derailleur, SGS cage (45T, 48T capacity)
  • CS-LG700-11 LINKGLIDE cassette 11-45T (or CS-LG400-11 11-45T)
  • CN-LG500 LINKGLIDE chain

Options

  • FC-U8000-2 HOLLOWTECH II crankset 46-32T, 170 or 175 mm, or FC-U6030-2 46-32T, 170 or 172.5 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. Pick one cassette. The 50-34T FC-U6030-2 exceeds the derailleur's capacity with an 11-45 and is not offered here. Frames without a braze-on tab need a clamp adapter.

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.
