long-cage, 12-speed rear derailleur pairs best with the CS-M8200 10-51 cassette to deliver
features all riders can appreciate. It taps into proven wireless Di2 shifting technology
and the strengths of other XT offerings, while pulling power from the bike’s main battery,
delivering a stable power supply, and eliminating the need for a back-up battery.
