The electronic system's controlled motion overcomes these problems. The Di2 can also trim the front derailleur to eliminate chain rub and calibrate itself to adjust for wear and tear. [16] Finally, the entire 7970 groupset weighs approximately 113 grams (4.0 oz) less than the 7800 it replaces but 68 grams (2.4 oz) more than the new 7900. [17]
Early Shimano 7-speed cassettes are 36 mm wide, with sprocket spacing of 3.65 mm, but levers and rear derailleurs are not compatible with later Shimano 7-speed cassettes, which are 38 mm wide and have 3.2 mm sprocket spacing. An 8-speed cassette is wider at 41.5 mm than a second generation Shimano 7.
Hyperglide is the name given by cycling component manufacturer Shimano to a sprocket design in their bicycle derailleur tooth cassette systems. [1] It varies gear tooth profiles, and/or pins along the faces of freewheel or cassette sprockets, or between the chainrings in a crankset , to ease shifting between them.

The Shimano FFS (Front Freewheel System) circa 1980 was the most widespread such system. Chain-drive systems such as the derailleur systems work best if the chain is aligned with the sprocket plane, especially avoiding the biggest (outermost) drive sprocket running with the biggest (innermost) driven sprocket (or the smallest with the smallest ...
The Shimano Front Freewheel (FFS) was a proprietary bicycle drivetrain design of the 1970s that placed a freewheel between the pedal cranks and the front chainrings – enabling the rider to shift gears while coasting. [2] FFS rear freewheel is different than a standard freewheel because it's "stiff" with more friction than a normal rear freewheel.
Shimano STI Dual Control shifter and brake lever: 1. Main lever 2. Release lever A. Pulling the main lever towards the rider applies the brake B. Pushing the main lever towards the center of the bike downshifts one, two or three gears depending on how far the lever is pushed (right hand shifter) or changes from a small chainring to a larger chainring (left hand shifter)
