Shimano Cues SL-U8000 11-speed I-Spec II shifter with indicator

Shimano Cues SL-U8000 11-speed I-Spec II shifter with indicator

The Shimano Cues SL-U8000 11 speed shifter in the I-Spec II version is designed for mounting directly on compatible Shimano brake levers. Integration without a separate clamp gives a cleaner cockpit look and better control ergonomics.

The integrated optical gear indicator allows a quick check of the selected gear while riding. The Cues series is designed for long service life and stable shifting even under higher loads, which e-bike users will also appreciate.
