Wolf Tooth GoatLink 11

Wolf Tooth GoatLink 11The GoatLink 11 hanger extension offsets the position of your 11 speed Shimano mountain bike rear derailleur allowing you to be able to run a wider range cassette while improving performance. Same ergonomics and reliability of Shimano shifters and derailleurs Gear range, simplicity and quietness of SRAM 1x11 drivetrain High performance and lightweight This project began with the desire to run 11 speed Shimano derailleurs and shifters with SRAM 10 42t

The GoatLink 11 hanger extension offsets the position of your 11-speed Shimano mountain bike rear derailleur allowing you to be able to run a wider range cassette while improving performance. -Same ergonomics and reliability of Shimano shifters and derailleurs -Gear range, simplicity and quietness of SRAM 1x11 drivetrain -High-performance and lightweight This project began with the desire to run 11-speed Shimano derailleurs and shifters with SRAM 10-42t XD cassettes. Granted the combination can work without modification - but performance wasn't quite what we'd expect from Shimano and SRAM's finest. When used with a 10-42t cassette, the GoatLink 11 re-positions SLX M7000, XT M8000 and XTR M9000 rear derailleurs such that free chain length between the cassette and the top derailleur pulley is within 1% of what Shimano intended while cassette tooth engagement in the smallest cog is improved by 27%. Knowing that certain situations call for a range beyond that provided 10-42t or 11-42t cassettes, we tweaked the GoatLink 11 to also significantly improve Shimano 11spd rear derailleur performance with extended-range like the Wolf Tooth GCX44 modified 10-44t XX1 or X01 cassette. -The GoatLink 11 is compatible with SLX M7000, XT M8000 and XTR M9000 series 11-speed Shimano rear derailleurs. -The GoatLink 11 mounts only to standard derailleur hangers. -Double chainrings (2x) is supported and requires a long cage (SGS) rear derailleur with no more than a 12t difference in front chainrings (with an 11-46t cassette). -Triple chainrings are not supported. Direct Mount native frames and SRAM derailleurs are not supported.
