What Is It?
The Shimano GRX RD-RX810 2×11 Rear Derailleur is a premium 11-speed gravel rear derailleur engineered for 2×11 Shimano GRX drivetrains. Designed specifically for mixed-surface riding, it features Shimano SHADOW RD+ technology, which incorporates a switchable chain stabiliser to reduce chain slap, improve chain retention, and deliver quieter, more secure shifting on rough terrain.
With a maximum low sprocket size of 34T, the RD-RX810 offers smooth, reliable shifting across a wide gear range, making it ideal for gravel racing, bikepacking, endurance riding, and adventure cycling. Its low-profile design also helps protect the derailleur from impacts on technical terrain.
