{"product_id":"cassette-ultegra-cs-r8101","title":"Shimano Ultegra CS-R8101 Cassette","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Shimano Ultegra CS-R8101 cassette is the optimized, lightweight core for any serious road bike using the 12-speed Ultegra drivetrain. This cassette, which refines the performance of the R8100 series, introduces Shimano's revolutionary Hyperglide+ system. Hyperglide+ guarantees unprecedented smooth shifting when both upshifting and downshifting, even under heavy load and during acceleration. This significantly reduces shifting time and ensures a more stable cadence, essential for top competition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe construction of the CS-R8101 focuses on stiffness, minimal inertia, and durability. The larger sprockets are mounted on a lightweight aluminum spider, which reduces weight and maintains stiffness for efficient power transfer. The cassette uses two aluminum sprockets and durable steel for the other cogs, ensuring excellent longevity without compromising performance. The refined tooth profiles ensure remarkably quiet operation of the drivetrain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Ultegra 12-speed cassette is available in optimized gear ratios such as 11-30T and 11-34T. The 11-34T variant offers a wide range that is ideal for steep climbs or riding gran fondos with significant elevation gain. Crucially, the CS-R8101 is compatible with the traditional Shimano HG freehub body (11-speed road body). For the best shifting performance, combining it with the CN-M8100 or CN-M9100 12-speed chain is recommended.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e{snippet alias=\"oem\"}\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shimano","offers":[{"title":"Silver \/ 11-30","offer_id":53485773422935,"sku":"ICSR810112130","price":74.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Silver \/ 11-34","offer_id":53485773455703,"sku":"ICSR810112134","price":69.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1005\/2570\/3511\/files\/cassette-ultegra-cs-r8101-245090.png?v=1778087544","url":"https:\/\/woest-sport.com\/en\/products\/cassette-ultegra-cs-r8101","provider":"Woest Sport","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
