Description
Impeccably finished second from top of the range Shimano 600 6400 series road rear mech for 6, 7 and 8 speed indexed systems. The 6400 group is definitely a personal favourite, cross-compatible with almost everything and really nicely finished but not as precious (or expensive!) as Dura Ace. The 6401 version of this mech is a short cage road mech that will also work seamlessly with friction set-ups.
