Shimano's Direct Mount compatible Rear Derailleur system gives more space around the rear frame dropout resulting in easier rear wheel removal but also allows frame designers to shorten chain stays, increase axel sizes and move suspension pivots.

The derailleur can be used with single and double 11-speed drivetrains, compatible with a max low sprocket of up to 42T with a double set up and up to a 46T low sprocket with a single set up.
