Technology
MEGA 9 LITE
Light pedaling with efficient drivetrain
Optimal gear ratio for each wheel size
The larger the wheel the more range needed in the cassette to maintain light pedaling.
Refined front shifting system
Gear combinations specialized for each tire size reduces the number of recovery rear shifts needed with front close gear ratio.
Tire clearance improved for better maneuverability
TOP SWING Front Derailleur
Because the moving pivot section is set at a higher position and combined with a shorter link, the rigidity is higher; so quick and light shifting is possible.
HG Sprockets
The distinctively designed HYPERGLIDE sprockets incorporate specially positioned shift ramps and tooth profiles for improved chain control during shifting. Fast and responsive indexed shifting is the result.
The HG cassette sprocket, which was developed for the MTB 10-speed system, underwent comprehensive optimization to achieve super-highly efficient shifting.
HG sprockets
Guide the chain quickly and directly to the next sprocket without override.
Conventional sprockets
Cause the chain to ride up and over the gear teeth before engaging the sprocket.
