Shimano is probably one of the world's best-known companies in the bicycle sector. Hardly any other manufacturer is as widespread as the Japanese component manufacturer. Since 1921, Shimano has developed countless innovations and product groups, such as the first commercial derailleur gears group for mountain bikes, the legendary XT. Shimano offers products in every segment, in every quality and in every price range - it is no surprise that they have been world market leaders in bicycle components for years.
