Cassette Ultegra CS-R8100 12S Cassette (11-30T)

Description

The uninterrupted shifting experience of the ULTEGRA R8100 12-speed cassette range lets you climb, sprint, or cruise without stopping to think about your next gear change. Larger driving cogs maximize drivetrain efficiency and create compatibility with both Shimano 11 and 12-speed FREEHUB bodies.

HYPERGLIDE+ cassettes revolutionized off-road shifting with its seamless shifts both up and down the gear range. Now it’s time for the technology to change road cycling. Even during maximal efforts up a climb or racing a friend, riders no longer need to back off to perform a shift. In any gear, Shimano ULTEGRA R8150 drivetrains maximize efficiency thanks to larger cogs and retain compatibility with existing HYPERGLIDE FREEHUB bodies. All this while increasing to 12-gears, ULTEGRA CS-R8100 cassettes are the new paradigm in road shifting.

SIZING

How to measure your foot length

Stand with the heel to a wall and put a measuring tape under your feet
Read off the measured foot length in millimeters before your longest toe
If you are between two sizes, choose the next higher, because feet are minimally greater under load

ADJUSTING

Before trying them on, put one hand under the toe and one under the heel, then flex the footbed a few times. This will initiate the break in period and will your help your new sandals feel comfy sooner.

Open all straps and step into the footbed. Close the straps comfortably, leaving enough space to allow your feet the freedom of movement. Exhale and enjoy.

WEARING

For the first five or six times you wear your new footwear, limit the time to just a few hours. This allows your feet and body to gradually get used to the contoured arch support as well as the straps and buckles.
