(9V) Shimano CUES U-4020, 36T Max

The Shimano CUES RD-U4020 rear derailleur is suitable for city, touring and mountain bikes with 2x9-speed Linkglide drivetrain and, unlike the RD-U3020, is also approved for e-bikes. It features a flat construction, the so-called Shadow Design, which reduces the risk of collision with obstacles. Its smooth, reliable function promotes comfortable everyday biking. The rear derailleur has a total capacity of 41 teeth and is only compatible with 2x gears and 36 teeth on the largest cassette sprocket. It is made of steel and a polyamide-glass fibre composite.

Guidelines for Replacing E-bike Components:

Technology:

Shadow RD
Shadow rear derailleurs from Shimano have a very flat profile, allowing for a more aggressive riding style by minimising the risk of getting stuck on obstacles. In addition, the single preload ensures that the rear derailleur does not hit the chain stay even on very uneven ground. All of this contributes to a quiet, clean-operating gearshift.
