Shimano CS-M8200 Cassette 9-45 Deore XT 12-Speed – HyperGlide+

The Shimano CS-M8200 Cassette 9-45 brings the benefits of HyperGlide+ shifting to a compact, lightweight drivetrain. Designed for riders seeking extra ground clearance and faster acceleration, this cassette pairs perfectly with Shimano’s medium cage RD-M8250-GS derailleur for a no-sacrifice 500% gear range.

Compact Range with Big Performance

The 9–45T configuration offers a wide 500% gear range while saving weight and improving ground clearance compared to the 10–51T setup. Ideal for aggressive trail riders and enduro racers looking for maximum agility.

Micro Spline Freehub Compatibility

The CS-M8200 Cassette 9-45 is built for Shimano’s Micro Spline freehub standard and mounts securely with the use of the special TL-LR021 lockring tool, compatible with 12mm E-Thru axles.

Optimised HyperGlide+ Shifting

Revised cog tooth profiles ensure smooth, precise shifting under load, letting you change gears confidently even during steep climbs or sprints.

Durable, Lightweight Construction

A strategic blend of heat-treated steel cogs for durability and an alloy spider arm for weight savings delivers the perfect balance for aggressive mountain biking.
