The Shimano XT Di2 12-Speed Upgrade Kit introduces high-performance wireless shifting to the Deore XT platform, delivering exceptional precision, durability, and configurability for modern trail, enduro, and XC bikes. This all-in-one kit features the new RD-M8250-SGS Di2 rear derailleur, which is purpose-built for impact resistance and ultra-fast shifting, even in the harshest trail environments. Paired with the SW-M8250 Rapid ES shifter, the XT Di2 platform offers the same dependable electronic shifting found on Shimano’s flagship drivetrains—without the need for exposed shift cables.
This kit brings race-ready performance to riders who demand reliability and configurability in one of the most rugged Di2 systems Shimano has ever produced.
The RD-M8250-SGS 12-speed rear derailleur features a long cage with wide link construction, solid pulleys, and an integrated skid-plate design to withstand trail impacts and abrasion
Shadow ES design reduces frontal surface area and minimizes snag points by tucking the derailleur in tightly against the frame
Automatic Impact Recovery feature detects derailleur strikes and autonomously resets motor alignment, preserving shifting accuracy mid-ride
Di2 wireless technology ensures lightning-fast shifting without cables, and reduces maintenance demands
The SW-M8250 Rapid ES shifter delivers a familiar yet highly customizable feel, with ergonomic design for maximum control
Shifter includes adjustable lever positions, multiple shifting modes (single-click, multi-shift hold, and double-shift click-through), and a programmable third button for additional functions or 3rd-party integrations
