ZEE Shadow+ 10-Speed Rear Derailleur

Silence the noise and tackle any trail with Shimano's ZEE rear derailleur. Its short cage and Shadow profile keep it safely out of the way of rocks and roots. The one-way clutch system, the 'Plus' feature, stabilizes the cage and chain on rough terrain, virtually eliminating chain slap, noise, and dropped chains. It offers the smooth action and precise shifting Shimano is known for. Freeriders and trail riders can use typical MTB cassettes like 11-32, 11-34, or 11-36. Downhill riders can opt for the close-ratio version and use road cassettes such as 11-23, 11-25, or 11-28.

Using this Shimano ZEE rear derailleur is easy. Just install it on your bike following the standard procedure. When riding, you'll notice smooth shifting right away. For trail and freeride, choose the appropriate MTB cassette. If you're into downhill riding, pick the close-ratio version with a road cassette. As for maintenance, regularly clean the derailleur to remove dirt and grime. Check the chain tension and make sure the clutch system is working properly. After a long or rough ride, it's a good idea to lubricate the moving parts for optimal performance. Keep an eye on any signs of wear and replace parts if needed. Also, avoid hitting the derailleur against rocks or other hard objects to prevent damage.
