Shimano LINKGLIDE is the standard for smooth shifting. Its unique, robust design improves durability, delivering smooth shifting and consistent performance over the long term. A durable drivetrain is essential for high-torque e-bikes and riders who ride the same gear for months or years. LINKGLIDE delivers durability and smooth shifting for years to come. Redesigned for LINKGLIDE, the cassette teeth have a significantly thicker base and unique groove shape, which improves wear resistance under high torque. Improved cassette durability results in a smoother ride and a longer lifespan before the chain skips due to wear. A key feature of the LINKGLIDE platform is its robust gear profile, which provides high durability and wear resistance. This is important because many riders who buy everyday bikes choose geared bikes but forget to shift and maintain them as frequently as necessary. LINKGLIDE provides smooth shifting while pedaling, ensuring a stable ride. The gear gate design for LINKGLIDE provides smoother shifting and reduced shock. Smoother shifting reduces shift shock for a seamless, enjoyable ride.
