Wolf Tooth GoatLink Rear Derailleur Adapter 11-speed black (black)
This product’s description has been automatically translated. Please excuse any mistakes.
Thanks to the Wolf Tooth GoatLink rear derailleur adapter you can move your 11-speed Shimano rear derailleur after you have modified your drivetrain with a wider gear ratio range. The GoatLink allows the optimal positioning and thus long-term fluid shifting. With this solution, climbing steep climbs is no problem with an 1-speed setup.
The WolfTooth team provided the impetus for the development of GoatLink: They wanted to ride the combination of Shimano 11-speed rear derailleur/front derailleur with SRAM 10-42 Z XD cassettes without having to make any compromises when shifting.
In combination with a 10-42 Z cassette, the Goat-Link will position your 11-speed SLX M7000, XT M8000 or XTR M9000 rear derailleur so that the free chain length between the cassette and the top roller is within 1% of what Shimano intends. The meshing of chain links and teeth on the smallest sprocket has been improved by 27%.
Details
- 2-speed drives are supported, for this a rear derailleur with long cage (SGS) is required, whereby the chainrings must not have more than 12 teeth difference (with 11-46 Z cassette)
- 3-speed drives are not supported.
