The Shimano Deore SL-M6230 is built for the 11-speed LINKGLIDE drivetrain, delivering smooth shifting under load for E-MTB use. A shorter stroke, optimized paddle angle, and wider thumb contact area carry through from the DEORE lever redesign for our comfort and confidence while shifting. What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"LINKGLIDE shifting stays smooth when the motor is pushing and the chain is under load. Two-gear multishift covers the quick elevation changes where a single gear isn't enough."
