Thanks for the very informative video - i just (literally just) finished installing the "Deore XT" Linkglide 11s on my Bosch CX Hardtail coming from the regular Deore 11s. I switched all parts over, since i actually need the bike and didn't want to take the risk of blowing old stuff up. Will see how she performs tomorrow :) (the old parts will be used again in the next Suez Canal thing, if neccessary)
Cues in fact have 10sp shimano cog spacing, so 9s, 10s, 11s cues cassete will work with shimano mtb rear derailleur and shifter and chain. But with 9s you need to use Low or Hi screws to disable one geor on the shifter. With 11sp scenario your only way is cues shifter (but it will work with 10sp or 11sp or 12s rear derailleur)
and iirc link glide technology is only about cassete, chain or derailleur doesnt care, except shifters have less click from one push because ebike motor can bend cassete if you can try to shift 3 gears up in one push.
Great video thanks for that. Guess the next big question is, how long will it last, and will it live up to the durability claims? Just purchased a set as ebikes do work the drivetrain hard.

If I use a Clues 9 speed derailleur with a Shimano Altus 8 speed shifter, will it shift on a 8s HG cassette properly?
Great video thanks for that.

Do you wax your chain? That would be your first sure way to get more life out of your chain.
@@pierrex3226 yep already do. Last one went 4500kms to .7-.8% stretch.
thanks great info
