TOKEN derailleur cage Shuriken | for Shimano Dura Ace and Ultegra
The Shuriken derailleur cage from Token is an extravagant way to increase performance. Due to the large derailleur rollers with 12 teeth at the top and 19 teeth at the bottom, the looping radii of the chain are significantly reduced, which is noticeable in less friction. This allows you to save a few watts of power and convert it into propulsion.
But not only the optimized chain guide reduces the effort required when pedaling. The ceramic rollers in the TBT ball bearings are extremely hardened and rotate on their track with practically no resistance. In addition, they are in a special fat mixture, which prevents the penetration of water and further improves the rolling properties. The aluminum derailleur wheels not only give the system a unique look, with the PVD (Physical Vapor Deposition) coating they ensure that the chain runs smoothly and reliably keep it on the teeth at all times, even on rough ground.
The cage itself is made of carbon fibers, which have a beautiful 3K design. Due to the rigidity achieved, switching impulses are implemented accurately and without delay. The material also significantly reduces weight. The size of the cage allows the use of cassettes with a 34 tooth pinion.
The assembly of this system should not be a problem for the experienced screwdriver. The installation instructions below serve as a little help.
maintenance
Careful maintenance of bearings is important to maintain performance and longevity. Not only should dirt and grime be removed regularly, it is also important to put special oil on the bearings.
Note
When traveling, please remember to dismantle the entire rear derailleur if necessary, as very few bicycle transport bags offer enough space for the system.
