Shimano CUES components have been available for flat bar bikes, electric bikes and mountain bikes for a couple of years now, but Shimano’s announcement of a new set of components finally extends CUES equipment to drop bar road and gravel bikes.
CUES provides one common component set that will work with 11, 10 and 9-speed drivetrains and across the different disciplines, offering bike makers and riders a much simpler range of products to choose from. It also allows riders to swap a few components to add extra speeds to their drivetrain, rather than needing to replace their groupset in its entirety.
