The right-hand shifter for a Shimano 12-speed mountain bike drivetrain

The Shimano Deore SL-M6100 is the Rapidfire Plus right shift lever for Shimano's 12-speed Hyperglide+ mountain bike drivetrains. It pairs with Deore, SLX, XT and XTR 12-speed rear derailleurs and cassettes.

  • Two mounts: clamp band for any handlebar, or I-SPEC EV to mount directly to a compatible Shimano brake lever and keep the bar tidy.
  • Rapidfire Plus: the familiar two-lever action with a light, positive click.

Choose the mount from the options above. Tune Cycles supplies and fits Shimano drivetrains across Sydney; ask us if you are unsure which mount your brake levers take.
