Shimano SLX

About the brand

Shimano, Inc., formerly Shimano Iron Works and then Shimano Industries, Inc., is a Japanese multinational manufacture corporation. It produces bike components, fishing gear, and rowing kit, as well as golf supplies till 2005 and snowboarding equipment till 2008. Today it stands as the largest producer of bicycle parts. Its groupsets and parts are always popular, and frequently reasonably priced.

Shimano's SLX mtb group has attributes that should interest the majority of mountain bicycle riders. SLX, like many modern mountain bike drivetrains, features a clutch rear derailleur that reduces chain slap and ghost shift.

Also, SLX is ideal to go anywhere and whenever you like. Whether it's an all-day adventure, a regional cross-country event, or an after work ride with your friends. It will not disappoint you.

Shimano slx groupset

SLX is both adaptable and resilient. It has an excellent cassette span, a Shadow+ rear derailleur with customizable clutch, and an upgrade from effective cranks. And also has an aluminum biggest cassette sprocket. It also has several more advancements that cut weight and increase shift performance, exactly like the remaining of Shimano's 12-speed drive systems. The current lineup also went from a 10-speed rear cassette to an 11-speed cassette. Also, includes a single-ring 1x choice, and got a sleeker, lighter brake lever. Although SLX is less costly than Shimano's more pricey part sets, it does not sacrifice performance. Indeed, the group includes every key feature and technology seen in the XT and XTR.

Shimano slx brakes

The basic layout, levers, and caliper forms of the SLX hydraulic disc brakes are identical to those of the higher-end XT version. To alter the lever placement to best fit larger or smaller hand, the brake levers feature a tool-less reaching adjust. Shimano's hydraulic fluid is mineral oil. Mineral oil is less corrosive than DOT fluid, and it doesn't absorb moisture like DOT fluid, thus it never requires to be replaced. Also, Mineral oil, on the other hand, may not operate similarly at low temperatures, a factor to consider if you reside and ride in extremely cold climates.

Shimano slx derailleur

The rear derailleur, like the shift lever, shares all of its specifications with the less expensive variant. Shimano's Shadow RD+ design is used, and the onboard on/off switchable and pressure clutch system manages the motion of the derailleur cage.

The derailleur is also low-profile, with the cable clamp sitting inboard of the derailleur's knuckles - its broadest point - and its form preventing knuckle-to-frame contact. In contrast to SRAM's horizontally placed arrangement, the cable stop facing vertically.
