Rapid rise/ low normal 11spd??

[1bhp]

Does anyone know if shimano did a low normal/ rapid rise rear mech in 11spd??

Can find xt/XTR up to 9spd then a bit of deore, but nothing conclusive if they exist or not…

Nope

Thought as much.

Shame. Realised it makes total sense.

I liked mine but I think they were a sales flop by Shimano standards so they never made it to 10 speed. Shame really.

You could run a 10spd flat bar road shifter and a 9spd rapid rise on a 10spd cassette

I loved rapid rise, totally made sense to me and the gear changes under load were exceptional!

Never made the jump to 10 speed as they’d dropped the RR mechs… I held out until 11 speed came along!

I've still got a handful of XTR/XT rapid rise mechs, Couple of them BNIB.
Bought my first one the day that the XTR was available. Stopped using them in 2017.

Thanks for the reply’s all.
Yeh I’m currently running m950 XTR RR, I’d bought it thinking it was ‘normal’ but since really like the way it works. The bike will soon be 1x11 for simplicity, and I was hoping there was some obscure model that had carried on the low-normal torch into 11spd, but seems sadly not!
