Free delivery and returns on all eligible orders. Review: Works as expected - great Shimano rear derailleur. My previous one did get damaged (bent) on a mountain bike ride - my fault. Was an easy swap out and needed only little adjustment. Shows that even a little bit of bend in the rear derailleur affects the shifting - now perfect shifting again. So - if your shifting is giving you trouble check the derailleur for potential damage and/or if your shifter cable is starting to fail. Review: Great upgrade from the standard XT. I had to replace mine when a good size branch levered up off the trail while riding, wedged itself between the mech and the wheel and ripped the old XT off. This one was not much more than a direct replacement and the clutch is well worth the added price. I was used to having a chain drop or two on every ride (15-30+ miles). I've been riding with the shadow system for about 150 miles now and haven't had a drop the whole time! Slap is lessened or non existent... hard to tell when going through the really rough stuff but overall the chain is obviously much more stable. I can't see a reason to step back to a non shadow system if I had to replace this one. If you don't like it, you can just switch the little lever off! ## Features - Stabilizer switch to reduce chain slap - Low profile Shadow design - 10-Speed Shadow Plus MTB rear derailleur ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B007Q4MPXS | | Best Sellers Rank | 446,057 in Sports & Outdoors ( See Top 100 in Sports & Outdoors ) 480 in Bike Rear Dérailleurs | | Brand Name | SHIMANO | | Case Material Type | Aluminium | | Colour | Black | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 4.4 out of 5 stars (200) | | Item Weight | 336 g | | Manufacturer | Shimano | | Manufacturer Part Number | RD4068 | | Material Type | Aluminium | | Model Number | 154096 | | Mount Type | Braze-On Mount | | Number of Teeth | 35 | | UPC | 689228299290 | | Unit Count | 1.0 count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** SHIMANO - **Colour:** Black - **Item weight:** 336 g - **Material:** Aluminium - **Mounting type:** Braze-On Mount ## Images ![Shimano Deore XT RD-M786 SGS Shadow Plus Rear Derailleur - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/515C4ELp0mL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: This is good for my MTB with a sunrace cassette 11t-42t?** A: Do I need a Detailer extender to use this with a 9-speed 11-42t cassette? **Q: Can I put this on a trek marlin 6** A: Yes **Q: i want to convert to a 1x10 system on my mtb. and i want a wide range casette (11-42 tooth) should i get a medium or long cage?** A: The medium should work fine as long as you keep the chain ring size to 32t or smaller. **Q: Does in work on 3 (front) x 8 (rear) speeds ?** A: This rear derailleur is specifically a 10-speed shifter. It will not work with an 8 speed cassette. It will work with a 3-speed front derailleur. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by J***R on 14 November 2021* Works as expected - great Shimano rear derailleur.

Worked perfectly and saved my race! ## Frequently Bought Together - Shimano Deore XT RD-M786 SGS Shadow Plus Rear Derailleur, Black - KMC X10-116L, NP/BK 10 Speed Bicycle Chain - Shimano XT CS-M771 Bicycle Cassette (10-Speed) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hr/products/312801204-shimano-deore-xt-rd-m786-sgs-shadow-plus-rear-derailleur](https://www.desertcart.hr/products/312801204-shimano-deore-xt-rd-m786-sgs-shadow-plus-rear-derailleur) --- *Product available on Desertcart Croatia* *Store origin: HR* *Last updated: 2026-04-24*
