Goatlink 11 Shimano MTB
The GoatLink 11 is a hanger extension that repositions an 11-speed Shimano mountain rear derailleur lower and further back on a standard derailleur hanger. That shift lets the derailleur clear larger cassette cogs, so riders can fit a wider range cassette without swapping the rest of the drivetrain. It mounts between the hanger and the derailleur.
Machined from 6061 aluminum and supplied with a stainless steel bolt, it torques to 8-10Nm. With a 10-42t cassette it brings free chain length between the cassette and the upper pulley within one percent of Shimano's intended figure and improves tooth engagement on the smallest cog. Note that it adds clearance rather than derailleur capacity.
