Shimano Cues Adds Drop Bar Levers for Extra Durable 9, 10 & 11sp LinkGlide Road & Gravel Bikes
Briefly

Shimano has launched new Cues drop bar levers with hydraulic flat mount disc brakes, enhancing affordability and performance in gravel, road, and adventure biking. Cues offers both 1x and 2x options compatible with 9-speed, 10-speed, and 11-speed cassettes, catering to various biking needs, from budget commuters to rugged gravel setups. Additionally, there are new kid-friendly components to improve cycling for younger riders. Shimano aims to boost the Cues brand recognition, which has faced confusion due to branding issues, while emphasizing the advantages of thicker, more durable cassettes in today's evolving bike technology.
In a time of ever-thinner cassettes, Cues and LinkGlide went the opposite route, providing thicker, more durable cassettes for enhanced performance and longevity.
Shimano's introduction of Cues for drop bar bikes opens the door to affordable build options, enhancing performance for gravel and road biking enthusiasts.
