Two new cranks – including an XTR option – feature 55mm chain lines, providing riders with more clearance for modern bike designs that include wider chainstays. Additionally, Shimano announces the new Deore XT short cage rear derailleur that offers more ground clearance for aggressive riding while maintaining Shimano’s hallmark fast, smooth, and accurate shifting.
