Shimano Ultegra R8050 Di2 11sp Rear Derailleur

Ready to complete your Shimano Ultegra Di2 electronic drivetrain or to replace your component after a crash, the slick-shifting Ultegra R8050 Di2 rear derailleur now performs better than ever. By incorporating Shimano’s tried-and-tested “Shadow” technology from its mountain bike (MTB) components, this road bike rear derailleur has enhanced shifting stability. This is thanks to the revised lower profile design and a cage that sits closer to the bike’s frame. An added benefit of this is better aerodynamics and a sleeker, more integrated look.

Compact Rear Mechanism

The optimized slant angle of the Ultegra R8050 Di2 11sp Rear Derailleur guarantees race endurance and is more compact in design. The closer fit to the frame also ensures it suffers less damage in the event of a crash.

Technologies:

• Shadow RD: Traditional derailleurs extend wider than the profile of your bike. With its low-profile design, Shadow rear derailleurs have a more compact shape that fits closer to the frame, with more direct cable routing. They also maintain a consistent distance to the cassette for increased shift stability. The reduced body width creates a sleek and smooth appearance, ensuring less damage in a crash
• Di2: The power and precision of Di2 are unmatched. It enables beautifully smooth shifting both front and rear. The lack of maintenance and adjustment is impressive: once you’ve customised your Di2 to shift to your preferences, it will continue to do so endlessly
