SHIMANO CUES Shift Lever SL-U8000-L Mono 2-speed | I-Spec II
Shimano’s CUES components are the perfect solution for your everyday bike. They are durable, functional, and visually inspired by the top-tier groupsets. They also feature the latest technologies, but their excellent value for money ensures your wallet won’t take a hit. The 8000 series, the highest-quality model in this product line, will fully meet the expectations of even the most demanding riders.
The performance of the CUES shifter will fully win you over. It fits very comfortably under your thumb and requires minimal effort. It also shifts precisely and quickly back and forth between the chainrings. Thanks to its sophisticated shifting logic, a single lever is sufficient. When shifting to the large chainring, it is pushed forward as usual and then remains in this position. Downshifting can be done in two different ways thanks to the 2-Way-Release system. Either pull the lever back with your index finger or give it a slight push with your thumb to release the cable. The high-quality OPTISLICK inner cable also contributes to smooth operation. Its electroplated coating allows it to glide more smoothly through the outer housing and ensures excellent corrosion resistance. This shifter can be mounted directly onto I-Spec II-compatible brake levers. This creates additional space on the handlebars and results in a tidy cockpit.
