  Product Description
The benchmark of cross country component design

XTR® has been designed to give that expected Shimano reliability while adopting a new generation of shifting, drivetrain and braking systems. From the easy and flexible shifting performance of the Dual Control™ shift lever to the super-lightweight, linear response, & ultra-light disc brake design, XTR continues to be the benchmark of off-road cross-country component design.

A fresh front derailleur design compliments the new crankset and continues to provide the most confident front shifting available.

Shimano XTR M970 Top Swing Front Derailleur features Wide Link design for best shifting performance, new adjust screws that position for easier reach on different frame designs and a multi-clamp/multi-pull design.

Note: Exclusive design for 50mm chain-line.
