The Shimano DEORE SL-M5130 Rapidfire Plus 10-speed shift lever provides light and lag-free response for LINKGLIDE systems. With quick lever access and a light and responsive action, theDEORE M5130 LINKGLIDE RAPIDFIRE PLUS shift levers from Shimano guarantee smooth control on the trail.
LINKGLIDE provides smoother and more consistent pedaling when shifting gears that are almost imperceptible underfoot. LINKGLIDE 's optimized shift gate design provides a smooth transition between gears, eliminating jumps that can interfere with smooth shifting and pedaling. This improved design is particularly noticeable when shifting outdoors, where pedaling shocks are more noticeable due to the greater forces involved.
The durability of the drivetrain is crucial for high-powered bikes and for everyday cyclists who may ride in the same gear for long periods of time. LINKGLIDE provides smooth and decisive shifting that lasts longer than ever before. The rebuilt teeth of the LINKGLIDE cassette have a much thicker base and unique chamfering, which significantly increases wear resistance under high-torque conditions. This increase in cassette life extends the smoothness of riding and delays the onset of chain skipping problems caused by wear.

Key features of LINKGLIDE
SHIMANO STEPS - Taking electric bicycles to a new level
SHIMANO STEPS stands for SHIMANO Total Electric Power System. The development of the component group is based on SHIMANO 's idea of perfect integration, on the one hand, and the belief that an electric bicycle should first and foremost be a bicycle, on the other. This includes the comfortable and natural handling and behavior of the bicycle and the even development of power while pedaling. The SHIMANO STEPS concept enables cyclists to combine the experience of nature and healthy physical activity with exceptionally smooth motor support.
2-Way Release
The RAPIDFIRE Plus relay release lever is commonly referred to as a trigger because it acts like a gun, pulling toward the handle. The RAPIDFIRE Plus release lever from ALIVIO to XTR can be operated in the same way, but adds the ability to activate the release by thumb pressure.
Rapidfire Plus
Mountain bikes have been using the RAPIDFIRE Plus system since 1985. RAPIDFIRE Plus continues to be the number one choice for a wide range of cyclists, from XC racers to freeriders. The RAPIDFIRE Plus is perfect for quick shifting, giving cyclists the ability to change three gears in one motion. RAPIDFIRE Plus shift levers from DEORE to XTR all feature 2-Way Release, which means gears can be released by pulling with the index finger or thumb pressure.
I-Spec-EV
I-SPEC EV creates a clean and action-optimized cockpit that provides greater focus and flexibility for a wider range of riders.
