Shimano CUES CS-LG400-10 Cassette

No, this cassette is specifically designed for the Shimano LINKGLIDE ecosystem. It requires a compatible LINKGLIDE shifter and derailleur to function correctly and will not index properly with standard Hyperglide 11-speed components.

The CS-LG400-10 uses LINKGLIDE technology, which features thicker, more robust cogs designed to withstand the high torque and chain tension generated by e-bike motors. This construction significantly reduces wear, offering up to three times the lifespan of traditional cassettes.

No, the lockring is not included with this cassette. You will need to reuse your existing lockring or purchase a compatible one separately to secure the cassette to your hub.

While it is designed for the LINKGLIDE system, it is compatible with both LINKGLIDE and standard HG 11-speed chains. However, for the smoothest shifting and maximum durability, we recommend pairing it with a chain specifically optimized for the LINKGLIDE system.

Yes, this cassette is designed to fit on standard Shimano HG freehub bodies, making it a straightforward upgrade for many existing e-bike wheelsets.

Two-way shifting allows the chain to move smoothly across the cogs under load without the harsh 'clunk' often felt during gear changes. It results in a much quieter, more seamless transition that reduces stress on your drivetrain components and provides a more stable pedaling feel.
