Pre-Order

With Pre-Order, you can purchase the latest items added to our store in advance of them arriving with us.

Your Pre-Order is prioritised (at no additional charge); meaning that as soon as the product arrives with us, we can wrap it straight back up; ready for collection via Click & Collect or despatch to you — it often never even hits the stock room shelves!

Pre-Launch

With Pre-Launch, the date when we expect to receive the product ourselves is still a little too hazy to be confident in accepting Pre-Orders.

So, instead, you can submit your email address against the item you are interested in and we will email you as soon as stock arrives on the system.

The dates we provide are based on indications given by our suppliers. Whenever we get updated information from our suppliers we will endeavour to update the Estimated Delivery & Collection Dates provided on product pages.

We estimate this will be ready for despatch to you or collection via Click & Collect on Undetermined

Shimano Deore XT RD-M8200 Mechanical 12-Speed Rear Derailleur Shadow ES GS in Black

Season:All Year Round

Brand:Shimano

Code:RDM8200GS

The Shimano XT RD-M8200 Shadow ES Rear Derailleur delivers fast, precise shifting performance and exceptional durability for demanding trail and all-mountain riding. Featuring Shimano's advanced Shadow ES technology, it combines a super-low profile design with an optimised slant angle to maximise clearance and minimise the risk of trail impacts.

The innovative dual-spring Shadow ES stabilisation system significantly reduces chain bounce on rough terrain while increasing chain wrap and spring force by 70%, improving chain security and maintaining accurate shifting even as sprockets wear. Unlike conventional clutch systems, Shadow ES is maintenance-free and delivers consistent performance throughout its lifespan.

Constructed with cold-forged alloy links, four fluorine-coated bushings, and durable solid pulleys, the RD-M8200 is engineered for smooth operation and long-term reliability. The GS medium cage is optimised for Shimano 1x12-speed drivetrains using 9-45T cassettes, providing a 35T capacity and fast, positive shifting.

  • Shadow ES Technology: Low-profile design and skid plate improve clearance and impact resistance
