Built for rugged E-MTB rides, the XTR RD-M9260 Rear Derailleur delivers precise Di2 control
What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:
"I’m running the M9260 on two builds—one with a 12-speed Hyperglide+ cassette and one on LINKGLIDE. Both shift flawlessly, even under load. It’s rugged, quiet, and integrates perfectly with the rest of the Di2 system."
The Shimano XTR RD-M9260 Di2 Rear Derailleur is purpose-built for modern E-MTB riders pushing the limits of terrain and technology. Compatible with both 11-speed LINKGLIDE and 12-speed HYPERGLIDE+ drivetrains, this long-cage derailleur features wireless Di2 shifting and draws stable power from your bike’s main battery—no additional unit required.
Its reinforced carbon construction and wide-link design enhance stability and strength across rough terrain, while an automatic impact recovery feature instantly repositions the derailleur motor after a crash or strike. Integrated compatibility with Shimano’s AUTO SHIFT and FREE SHIFT systems allows seamless shifting while pedaling, coasting, or descending—delivering a smarter ride experience.
Engineered for longevity and responsiveness, the RD-M9260 brings Shimano’s top-tier shifting technologies to the growing world of performance E-MTB. Whether you’re chasing durability with LINKGLIDE or racing responsiveness with HYPERGLIDE+, this derailleur adapts to your terrain, power, and style.
