microSHIFT Acolyte Rear Derailleur - 8 Speed, Medium Cage, Black

Not everyone needs the added chain retention provided by our innovative SpringLock system. For those riders, microSHIFT offers a non-clutch version of their Acolyte derailleur. While still capable of handling a 12-46t cassette, the rear derailleur is the perfect choice for commuter or touring bikes that can benefit from using a wide range 1x gearing system.

• Direct path cable routing for smooth and responsive shifting
• In addition to 8-Speed cassettes, this rear derailleur is also compatible with 12-42t and 12-46t 9-speed cassettes (requires Advent 9-speed shifter)
• Compatible with Acolyte 8-speed or Advent 9-speed shifters only
