SHIMANO REAR DERAILLEUR

The rear derailleur is the hard-working mechanism at the back of your bike that moves the chain from cog to cog on the cassette. At the front of your bike, the right-hand gear shifter on the handlebars pulls a cable (or uses electronic signals) to move the derailleur. In turn, that moves the chain onto the appropriate cog on the cassette.

A fundamental part of your drivetrain, it’s important your rear derailleur is compatible with the rest of your bike's components, and don’t forget to regularly check it’s in good shape. Otherwise, a replacement is in order. If you’re in the market for a rear derailleur, check out our Shimano rear derailleurs – one of our top brands.
